Pacinian corpuscles respond to

A) an increase in tendon tension.
B) deep cutaneous pressure and vibration.
C) stretch and tension.
D) temperature and pain.
E) light touch.

Tendon Tension

The force exerted by a tendon when it is stretched or pulled, contributing to the movement of bones and muscles.
