GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Conscious proprioception is transmitted in this pathway ie: Muscle spindles and Golgi tendon organs which detect muscle length and contraction changes contributing to fine motor control and axial position.

Detailed explanation-2: -For example, the proprioceptors in muscles are called muscle spindles.

Detailed explanation-3: -Golgi Tendon Organs are proprioceptors or special sensory receptors that detect changes in muscle tension and force produced by muscle contractions. They are highly sensitive and capable of signaling even minute changes in muscle tension. GTOs have the ability to override muscle spindles.

Detailed explanation-4: -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. It lies at the origins and insertion of skeletal muscle fibers into the tendons of skeletal muscle.
