Areceptor that monitors stretch of the patellar tendon can be classified as a) mechanoreceptor and interoceptor. b) mechanoreceptor and proprioceptor. c) nociceptor and exteroceptor. d) baroreceptor and proprioceptor.

Mechanoreceptor and proprioceptor.

Explanation:

Patellar tendon may be defined as the fiber that attaches the patella to the tibia. The tear in the patellar tendon may cause severe injury and cause difficulty in walking.

Mechanoreceptor may be defined as the receptor that activates in response to touch or the mechanical sound. Proprioceptor may be defined as the receptor that respond in the position and movement. The patellar tendon monitors both the proprioceptor and mehanoreceptor.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

what statement best describes the difference between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems?

the sympathetic nervous system prepares the body for intense physical activity and is often referred to as the fight-or-flight response. the parasympathetic nervous system has almost the exact opposite effect and relaxes the body and inhibits or slows many high energy functions.
