Answer to Question 1

Answer: Nociceptors are pain receptors. Three nociceptor types include free nerve endings that respond to intense pressure; free nerve endings that respond to intense heat, to acids, and to the chemical capsaicin (TRPV1 receptor); and ATP-sensitive receptors.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Sound represents vibrations of air molecules produced by objects in the environment. These are waves that vary in frequency and intensity. Sound pitch corresponds to wave frequency, loudness corresponds to the sound intensity, and timbre corresponds to the complexity of the sound wave.
