How can you use “mechanoreceptor” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The primary role of this type of intercostal mechanoreceptor is hypothesized to be the same as in other muscle groups, i.e. the transduction and coding of muscle tension.
These differences, i.e., numbers of muscle fibers activated either parallel to or in-series with the mechanoreceptor, create changes in the afferent receptive field and alter its discharge properties.
A third type of mechanoreceptor, the Golgi tendon organ (GTO), was also responsive to muscle movement (contraction).
The results of the present study provide a unique demonstration of intercostal muscle mechanoreceptor transduction properties throughout a wide range of intercostal muscle displacement magnitudes and velocities.
