The clue for 21A is:
Extreme responsiveness (6)

HYPERSENSITIVITY and HYPERSENSIBILITY both fit the grid. I am pretty sure which is correct but I should be interested in your views.

I've put "hypersensitivity" for my answer.
I've just looked in both Chambers and my Concise Oxford and the other word doesn't appear in either dictionary?

Yes, but it's more than 6 letters, Elle.

Ah, but I have the advantage of having the crossword in front of me, Rusty.... Michael made a typo - it should have read 16 letters!

Apologies for my mistake. The answer is 16 letters, not 6.

Thank you, Elle
