Sensory Receptor Adaptation: Tonic vs. Phasic Receptors

What's the difference between tonic and phasic sensory receptors? In this video, I use diagrams to explain the difference between the two in how they adapt to stimuli. Muscle spindles are used as the primary example, and the difference in action potential firing is explained in a graph.
