Which cells are responsible for the sense of touch?

  1. Keratinocytes

  2. Langerhans

  3. Melanocytes

  4. Merkel's Cells

The correct answer is: Merkel's Cells

Merkel's cells are responsible for the sense of touch. They are found in the epidermis of the skin and are specialized mechanoreceptor cells that respond to light touch. Keratinocytes, Langerhans cells, and melanocytes are all important cells in the skin, but they do not play a direct role in the sense of touch.
