Sensory Cell Sodium Pacianian Corpuscle Stimulated Lamellae Deformed

Front Pacianian corpuscle when stimulated
Back Lamellae are deformed and press on the sensory nerve ending which causes the sensory neurone cell membrane to stretch which deforms the stretch-mediated sodium ion channels. The channels open and sodium ions diffuse into cell and generator potential produced
