The receptor (Pacinian corpuscle) converts mechanical energy into an electrical response, the magnitude is proportional to the intensity of the stimulus. Thus, the responses are described as graded potentials rather than all-or-none

G-tail is probably generated because there is a specific limited degradation of the C-A–rich strand.
