Responses of Muscle and Tendon Receptors

Description
The figure shows effects of arm movements on the firing of muscle and tendon afferent axons: (a) slow, passive extension of the arm; (b) rapid extension of the arm; (c) addition of a weight to an arm held in a horizontal position. MS1 and MS2 are two types of muscle spindles; GTO is an afferent fiber from the Golgi tendon organ.
