What monitors Equilibrium and the activities of muscles and joints?

What is the function of Proprioceptors?
Proprioceptors are sensors that provide information about joint angle, muscle length, and muscle tension, which is integrated to give information about the position of the limb in space.
What some examples of proprioceptors?
Proprioceptors are sensory nerve ending in muscles, tendons, and joints which respond to variations in movement, position, and tension. Muscle spindles proprioceptors sense changes in muscle length, Pacinian corpuscles are proprioceptor which detect changes in movement and pressure within the body, and the Golgi tendon organs, proprioceptors in the tendons near the end of muscle fibers, are sensitive to changes in muscle tension.
What is the main job of proprioceptors?
The main job of proprioceptors is to recieve stimulus about body position, posture, and movement. In other words, they are the things that tells the brain where the body is and what it is doing.
Which of the senses changes in body position?
proprioceptors
What are the three classes of mechanoreceptors?
Tactile receptors, baroreceptors, and proprioceptors
