Questions and Answers

______ has/is: 1) spiral-shaped axon (amplifying) surrounded by lamellae of Schwann cells, which are separated by a viscous fluid, enclosed by a connective tissue capsule which makes it rapidly adapting and highly sensitive. 2) small receptive field since it is located just below the epidermis border (close to the skin). 3) densely populated making the receptive fields overlapping. 4) converging making it highly sensitive and robust. These properties make up the modality of subtle movements (caused by 1) over fine textures (caused by 2) On the fingers, palms, and soles. Pacinian corpuscles have/are: 1) central axon runs through the center surrounded by concentric layers (lamellae) of Schwann cells, which are separated by a viscous fluid, and enclosed by a gel-like connective tissue capsule (adds to the viscous property), which makes it rapidly adapting and highly sensitive. 2) large receptive field since located in the hypodermis (skin pressure i.
