Question
Chapter 53.2, Problem 1CS
Summary Introduction
To determine: The organs in which stretch-sensitive receptors are found.
Introduction: The organs which perform their function by stretching contain receptors to detect the degree of stretching in the organ. The regulation of the stretching is required to prevent the organs from stretching beyond their capacity.

Intro to Neuro Question: The striatum has an (excitatory/inhibitory) connection to the globus pallidus external. Activation of that connection (increases/decreases) activity in the globus pallidus internal, ultimately (promoting/suppressing) movement.Group of answer choicesExcitatory, increases, promotingExcitatory, increases, suppressingInhibitory, decreases, promotingInhibitory, decreases, suppressingInhibitory, increases, suppressing
Is my reasoning correct?
The striatum has an inhibitory connection to the globus pallidus external (GPe). Activation of that connection decreases activity in the globus pallidus internal (GPi), ultimately promoting movement.
Thus, the correct group of answer choices is: Inhibitory, decreases, promoting
