What fine-tuned sensory receptors detect differences in tension generated by active muscle rather than muscle length

golgi tendon organs fine-tuned sensory receptors detect differences in tension generated by active muscle rather than muscle length.

  • Gamma motor neurons fire to regain sensitivity, causing the spindle to contract, becoming taut and regaining the ability to transmit muscle length.
  • There are two groups of motor neurons. Extrafusal fibers, the rapidly contracting fibers that give the muscle its power, are innervated by alpha motor neurons.

What is golgi tendon organs?

  • The Golgi tendon organ, which is located close to the point where a tendon joins a muscle, is a sensory ending that resembles a tree and is encased in a spindle-shaped connective tissue capsule.
  • In a male, one tendon organ is attached to 10 to 20 muscle fibers.
  • An endpoint of a typical tendon organ in limb muscles is roughly 0.5 mm long.

Genetic variation helps populations adapt to a changing
timama [110]

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction is the kind of reproduction that requires two organisms (male and female) to form an offspring. The male organism produces gametes called SPERM while the female organism produces gametes called EGG. These two gametes come together in a process called FERTILIZATION to produce a zygote, which develops into an offspring.

In sexual reproduction, gametes are produced by organisms involved via a process called MEIOSIS. Meiosis, however, reduces the chromosome number of the gametes by half. However, one process unique to only meiosis and sexual reproduction is called CROSSING OVER.

Crossing over is the process whereby chromosome segments is exchanged between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosome. This process causes a recombination of chromosomes (alleles) in such a way that the gametes will be genetically different from the parent organisms (genetic variation). According to this question, sexual reproduction leads to more genetic variation than asexual reproduction due to the process of CROSSING OVER that occurs in sexual reproduction.
