Too technical

[edit]

This is too technical for me to wikify. --rbrwr± 14:31, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I have written another article from scratch, because the original contribution was not adequate. User:Rsabbatini.

misleading with the type II axons

[edit]

type II axons reports muscle length, not change in muscle length? Or am i wrong? That is at least what is written in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_II_sensory_fiber.

Maybe a bad idea to use wikipedia suorces for making wikipedia articles, but i have a feeling that i am righ here. Maybe someone that is sure could tell? In the way it is now i find the table very confusing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.241.72.216 (talk) 15:42, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The II neurons fiber don't fire when the muscle is still, rather, they fire when the muscle is still but they actually fire even more when there is a velocity. 145.94.155.187 (talk) 19:31, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Fibers vs neurons

[edit]

This article would be much clearer if the word "fiber" was changed to become "neuron" when speaking about a sensory fiber. As a student, when I think of a neuromotor-related fiber, I think of a muscle fiber. Talking about the Ia fiber makes me think of slow-twitch muscle fibers... it makes this entire article very confusing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.171.164.211 (talk) 12:09, 26 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Function of muscle spindles

[edit]

This may be a poor question. But, if, as the article states, the muscle spindle is parallel with contractile fibers then why does the image seem to depict them in series? Vokesk (talk) 22:38, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
