Quotes About Golgi

Inside the "cells" there were no normal-looking organelles, no nuclei, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, or Golgi bodies.

The Golgi tendon organ detects increases in tension in the region and relays this information to the spinal cord, which then inhibits the muscle from contracting.

The Golgi tendon organs are found among the collagen bundles of the tendons, in the border zone where the muscle fibers are attached to the tendons. Although they are located in the connective tissue of the tendon rather than in the midst of the muscle cells, they are, like the spindles, minute gauges for the efforts of the alpha muscle fibers.
