Why do you think that tactile corpuscles are located more superficially in the dermis than lamellated corpuscles?

Tactile corpuscles, or Meissner's corpuscles, are located more superficially in the dermis to facilitate their role in detecting light touch and surface texture, allowing for rapid response to changes in stimuli. Their positioning near the skin's surface enables them to quickly relay sensory information to the nervous system. In contrast, lamellated corpuscles, or Pacinian corpuscles, are deeper in the dermis and are specialized for detecting deeper pressure and vibration, which requires a different structural adaptation to respond to stimuli that penetrate the skin more deeply.
