RAPID-adapting mechanoreceptors - ️️Meissner and Pacinian (dynamic phase QUICKLY becomes static phase) dorsal root ganglion (DRG) - ️️(part of the PNS) cluster of cell bodies in the dorsal root of a spinal nerve (when the action potential reaches the DRG, it splits into 2 - one travels toward the cell body and the other continues down the axon) dorsal horn - ️️the POSTERIOR column of grey matter in the spinal cord (shape differs depending on spinal segment) - contains SENSORY n...
