As we move from mechanoreceptor fibers in the fingers toward the brain, we see that neurons become more specialized.
Both the upper and lower layers of the skin hold rapidly and slowly adapting receptors. Both primary somatosensory cortex and secondary cortical areas are responsible for processing the complex picture of stimuli transmitted from the interplay of mechanoreceptors.
Mechanoreceptors are innervated by sensory neurons that convert mechanical pressure into electrical signals that, in animals, are sent to the CNS.
Stimulation of these receptors results in reflex muscle contraction about the joint as an adaptive control to sudden movements of acceleration or deceleration.
