  6. Thermoreceptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoreceptor

    Cold-sensitive thermoreceptors give rise to the sensations of cooling, cold and freshness. In the cornea cold receptors are thought to respond with an increase in firing rate to cooling produced by evaporation of lacrimal fluid 'tears' and thereby to elicit a blink reflex [citation needed]. Other thermoreceptors will react to opposite triggers ...
