Chapter 14, Problem 1RQ
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The sensory proprioceptor located in the skeletal muscle.
Introduction:
Sensory proprioception is a process that is regulated by certain receptors present within the body. The sensory receptors send signals to the central nervous system regarding limb movement and velocity, limb limits and load. These receptors make the body of an animal stable against perturbations.
