<prompt> Inverse stretch reflex is mediated by?Muscle spindleGolgi tendon organUnmyelinated C fibresB fibers  <response>: Ans. b Golgi Tendon organRef: Ganong 25th ed. 232A Golgi Tendon Reflex Inverse Stretch Reflex Operates as follows: As the tension applied to a tendon increases, the Golgi tendon organ sensor is stimulated. Nerve impulses action potentials arise and propagate along the lb sensory nerve fibers into the spinal cord. Within the spinal cord , the lb sensory nerve fibers synapse and generate an IPSP inhibitory post synaptic potential on the motor neurons that supply the muscles form which the fibers arise The muscle relaxes and excess tension is relieved.
