While your other four senses (sight, hearing, smell, and taste) are located in specific parts of the body, your sense of '''touch''' is found all over. This is because your sense of touch originates in the bottom layer of your skin called the [[dermis]]. The dermis is filled with many tiny nerve endings which give you [[information]] about the [[things]] with which your [[body]] comes in contact. They do this by carrying the information to the spinal cord, which sends messages to the brain where the [[feeling]] is registered.
