Final answer:

Meissner's corpuscle can affect breathing rate through mechanoreceptor stimulation.


Explanation:

Meissner's corpuscle is the sensory organ that can initiate a reflexivity affecting breathing rate. Meissner's corpuscles are encapsulated rapidly-adapting mechanoreceptors that respond to touch and low-frequency vibration. Their stimulation can influence breathing due to the brain stem's control over heart rate and breathing.
