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.

Murrr4er [49]
Solution: C. Increased use of surrounding land

Upward urban growth will increase pollution as the number of people will increase. The increase in population and obstruction of free movement of air because of upward urban growth will result in a "heat island". Since the number of inhabitants is going to increase with upward urban growth, waste management will also become an issue.

If you wish to go vegetarian red veggies tend to be high in iron, one in particular are beets (yes, i know, they aren't red until processed)

Large molecules, such as glucose, that cannot cross the lipid bilayer can still move across the membrane through a type of passi
harkovskaia [24]
Facilitated diffusion. It is a passive transport mechanism in which carrier proteins shuttle molecules across the cell membrane without using the cell’s energy supplies. Instead, the energy is provide by the concentration gradient, which means that molecules are transported from higher to lower concentrations, into or out of the cell. The carrier proteins bind to glucose, which causes them to change shape and translocate the glucose from one side of the membrane to the other. Red blood cells use facilitated diffusion to absorb glucose.
