2. Joint receptors are sensory receptors located in the joint capsules and ligaments. They sense changes in joint position and help to coordinate joint movement and protect the joint from damage.
3. Golgi tendon organs are sensory receptors located at the junction between tendons and muscles. They sense changes in muscle tension and help to protect the muscle from damage.
