Answer:

For the given question, out of the four options

option A) is correct  

Explanation:

Though pressure and pain have different receptors but their structural anatomy is same. Both originate from the same ancestral cells. The only difference to feel pressure and pain is in the stimulus intensity which depends on the action of brain on the basis of level of stimulus.

Moderate or low stimulus results in pressure or itching but when the stimulus is high crossing the threshold or a critical limiting value then we feel the sensation of pain.
