Cortical RFs are always larger than those for primary sensory neurons.
Because of this, in primary somatosensory cortex, shape but not texture is well signalled
Hence slowly adapting primary cortical neurons cannot signal the form of a tactile stimulus
Because of this, in cortex rapidly adapting not slowly adapting neurons are used to signal the form of a tactile stimulus
Despite this, slowly adapting primary cortical neurons are still able to well signal the form of a tactile stimulus
Because of this, in primary somatosensory cortex, form is no longer well signalled
