GAMMA EFFERENT CONTRACTILE ENDS OF INTRAFUSAL FIBERS ADJUST TENSION IN THE MUSCLE SPINDLE TO VARIATION IN LENGTH OF MUSCLE

When a muscle shortens the gamma motor neurons stimulate the ends of intrafusal muscle fibers to contract slightly keeping them taut & responsive without this during contraction of extrafusal fibers they would become flabby
