Answer:

Mechanoreceptors and Chemoreceptors.

Explanation:

Mechanoreceptors: respond to physical deformation of the cell membrane from mechanical energy or pressure, including touch, stretch, motion, or sound.

Chemoreceptors: respond to specific molecules, often dissolved in a specific medium (such as saliva or mucus), or airborne molecules.
