Sensory Physiology

Pick two types of sensory receptors:

A. Pick two different modalities that would stimulate them

B. Put these modalities in order with respect to adequate stimulus

So if i was to pick, Photoreceptors and Thermoreceptors ( these would be the sensory receptors) and then the modalities for photoreceptors is vision and for thermoreceptors
it is temperature.

Then how do you determine the order of the modalities?
