The sensory receptors involved in hearing are mechanoreceptors. These receptors are specialized to respond to mechanical stimuli, such as vibrations or movements in the environment. When sound waves reach the ear, they cause the eardrum and tiny hairs inside the cochlea to vibrate. These vibrations are detected by mechanoreceptors, which convert them into electrical signals that can be processed by the brain, allowing us to perceive sound. So the correct answer is mechanoreceptors.
