Phasic receptors initially produce a burst of action potentials, then quickly adapt, reducing the signal even if the stimulus continues.
Οι φασικοί υποδοχείς παράγουν αρχικά ένα κύμα δυναμικών ενέργειας και στη συνέχεια γρήγορα προσαρμόζονται, μειώνοντας το σήμα ακόμη και αν το ερέθισμα συνεχίζεται.
