What are the five special senses and what distinguishes them from somatic senses such as mechanoreception (pressure, vibration and proprioception), pain (nociception) and heat (thermoception)?

Special senses include:

Explanation:

Somatic senses are specialized never cells that act as receptors of a certain stimulus, such as pain and pressure. the detected stimulus is converted to a nerve impulse that travels along the afferent nerves to the central nervous system for processing and generating a response.

Special senses on the other hand have sense organs such as tongue and nose that gather the sensation turns it to a nerve impulse that travels along the afferent nerves to the CNS for processing and generating a response.

volcanoes (an event in the geosphere) release a large amount of particulate matter into the atmosphere. these particles serve as nuclei for the formation of water droplets (hydrosphere). rainfall (hydrosphere) often increases following an eruption, stimulating plant growth (biosphere).
