/ˌmɛkn̩əʊrᵻˈsɛptə/, U.S.

/ˌmɛkənoʊrəˈsɛptər/,

/ˌmɛkənoʊriˈsɛptər/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: mechano- comb. form, receptor n.

Etymology: < mechano- comb. form + receptor n., probably after chemoreceptor n., photoreceptor n., etc. Compare slightly earlier mechanico-receptor n. at mechanico- comb. form 2.

Physiology.

A sensory receptor that responds to mechanical stimuli, such as pressure changes resulting from touch or sound.
