Afferent nerve fiber
Afferent nerve fibers refer to axonal projections that arrive at a particular region; as opposed to efferent projections that exit the region.

Dorsal root ganglion
A dorsal root ganglion (or spinal ganglion) (also known as a posterior root ganglion), is a cluster of neurons (a ganglion) in a dorsal root of a spinal nerve.

Gamma motor neuron
A gamma motor neuron (γ motor neuron), also called gamma motoneuron, is a type of lower motor neuron that takes part in the process of muscle contraction, and represents about 30% of (Aγ) fibers going to the muscle.

Golgi tendon organ
The Golgi tendon organ (GTO) (also called Golgi organ, tendon organ, neurotendinous organ or neurotendinous spindle) is a proprioceptive sensory receptor organ that senses changes in muscle tension.

Intrafusal muscle fiber
Intrafusal muscle fibers are skeletal muscle fibers that serve as specialized sensory organs (proprioceptors) that detect the amount and rate of change in length of a muscle.

Joint
A joint or articulation (or articular surface) is the connection made between bones in the body which link the skeletal system into a functional whole.

Membrane potential
The term "membrane potential" may refer to one of three kinds of membrane potential.

Motor system
The motor system is the part of the central nervous system that is involved with movement.

Muscle
Muscle is a soft tissue found in most animals.

Muscle spindle
Muscle spindles are stretch receptors within the body of a muscle that primarily detect changes in the length of the muscle.

Nervous system
The nervous system is the part of an animal that coordinates its actions by transmitting signals to and from different parts of its body.

Nuclear bag fiber
A nuclear bag fiber is a type of intrafusal muscle fiber that lies in the center of a muscle spindle.
New!!: Type Ia sensory fiber and Nuclear bag fiber · See more »
Nuclear chain fiber
A nuclear chain fiber is a specialized sensory organ contained within a muscle.
New!!: Type Ia sensory fiber and Nuclear chain fiber · See more »
Proprioception
Proprioception, from Latin proprius, meaning "one's own", "individual", and capio, capere, to take or grasp, is the sense of the relative position of one's own parts of the body and strength of effort being employed in movement.

Reflex
A reflex, or reflex action, is an involuntary and nearly instantaneous movement in response to a stimulus.
New!!: Type Ia sensory fiber and Reflex · See more »
Sensory neuron
Sensory neurons also known as afferent neurons are neurons that convert a specific type of stimulus, via their receptors, into action potentials or graded potentials.

Spinal cord
The spinal cord is a long, thin, tubular bundle of nervous tissue and support cells that extends from the medulla oblongata in the brainstem to the lumbar region of the vertebral column.

Stretch receptor
Stretch receptors are mechanoreceptors responsive to distention of various organs and muscles, and are neurologically linked to the medulla in the brain stem via afferent nerve fibers.

Type II sensory fiber
Type II sensory fiber (group Aβ) is a type of sensory fiber, the second of the two main groups of stretch receptors.
