Q

What are proprioceptors?

A

Receptor is found in the same organ (muscle) as the effector (muscle). It is maintaining
muscular tone. Definition: detection of changes in body posture. Function: information about
the posture and gait

Is an autoimmune disease or congenital neuromuscular disease, which results from antibodies
that block nicotinic acetylcholine receptors at the junction between nerve and muscle. This
prevents nerve impulses from triggering muscle contraction “ muscle weakness.
