Question

multiple select question select all that apply what are the functions of proprioceptors? (select all that apply) detect pressure and touch detect temperature changes detect skeletal muscle stretch and contraction maintain posture and muscle tone

Explanation:

Proprioceptors are sensory receptors that provide information about muscle length, tension, and joint position. They detect skeletal muscle stretch and contraction and help maintain posture and muscle tone. Detecting pressure and touch is the function of mechanoreceptors in the skin, and detecting temperature changes is the function of thermoreceptors.

Answer:

C. Detect skeletal muscle stretch and contraction
D. Maintain posture and muscle tone
