1. kinesthesia

   Proprioception ( PROH-pree-o-SEP-shən), also referred to as kinaesthesia (or kinesthesia), is the sense of self-movement, force, and body position. It is sometimes described as the "sixth sense".Proprioception is mediated by proprioceptors, mechanosensory neurons located within muscles, tendons, and joints. Most animals possess multiple subtypes of proprioceptors, which detect distinct kinematic parameters, such as joint position, movement, and load. Although all mobile animals possess proprioceptors, the structure of the sensory organs can vary across species. Proprioceptive signals are transmitted to the central nervous system, where they are integrated with information from other sensory systems, such as the visual system and the vestibular system, to create an overall representation of body position, movement, and acceleration. In many animals, sensory feedback from proprioceptors is essential for stabilizing body posture and coordinating body movement.

1. kinesthesia

   Kinesthesia is the sense of awareness or perception of the movement and position of one's body parts and their relative position and motion in space. It involves the cognitive understanding of body movement and helps regulate coordination and balance. This sense is produced by several body systems working together, including the vestibular system, the proprioceptive sensory system, and to some degree the visual system.
