Golgi tendon organ function is?
Detects the dynamic change in muscle length
Detects the muscle tension
Detects the muscle stretch
Detects the muscle strength
There are two proprioceptors in a muscle: - Muscle spindle Golgi tendon organ - Situated in belly or muscle - Formed by intra-fusal fibres - Detects the length of muscle when muscle is stationary - Detect rate of change of length - Present in tendon - Made up of tendon fibres - Detects the muscle tension. - Detects rate of change of tension.
