Sensory Nerves and Receptors
... The sensory receptors are classified into three types: 1. Rapidly adapting receptors (phasic receptors), as touch receptors. 2. Moderately adapting receptors as thermoreceptors (20-40°C). 3. Slowly adapting receptors (tonic receptors), as muscle spindles. The rate of adaptation of each type of recep ...
