Question

question 3 (2 points)
which of the following is responsible for the transmission of fast, sharp pain?
unmyelinated c - fibers
myelinated a - delta fibers
type ii fibers
proprioceptive fibers

Explanation:

Myelinated A - delta fibers are responsible for the rapid transmission of sharp, well - localized pain. Unmyelinated C - fibers transmit dull, diffuse pain. Type II fibers are mainly related to muscle function and not pain transmission. Proprioceptive fibers are involved in sensing body position and movement, not pain transmission.

Answer:

Myelinated A - delta fibers
