Subject: RE: [humanmarkup-comment] Base Schema-channel
That is "the sense of where body parts are relative to each other" or "the ability to feel movements of the limbs and body"? http://onlinedictionary.datasegment.com/word/kinesthesia kinesthesia n 1: the perception of body position and movement and muscular tensions etc [syn: kinaesthesia, feeling of movement] 2: the ability to feel movements of the limbs and body [syn: kinesthesis, kinaesthesis, kinaesthesia, kinesthetics, muscle sense , sense of movement] [ant: kinanesthesia] len From: Rob Nixon [mailto:rnixon@qdyn.com] People forget kinesthetics ( body position ) all the time. Even though some people believe it to be controversial, the Muscle Spindles and Golgi tendon organs help provide the sensing mechanism for body position. That is why when your arm goes to sleep you can't tell where it is.... So add kinesthetics to the list of senses...
