reflexes-physio Flashcards
Afferent and efferent of the only monosynaptic reflex
Afferent1a ||Efferent|a
Bag vs chain
Bag Respond to the rate of the stretchDynamicPhasicChain TonicRespond to degrees of the stretch Static
Primary vs secondary afferent
1ry 1a , rapidly conducting, dynamic and static for chain and bag 2ry ||Afferent, slow conducting, give static response only to chain
Dynamic stretche reflex is a basis for …..
Tendon jerks
What’s gamma loop/Alpha gamma co activation or force regulation
Servo assistant function of SR as in weight liftingThe heavier the more afrrent discharge, the more alpha recruitment , the more force of Contraction
