What component of the reflex arc determines the response to a stimulus?

The component that determines the response to a stimulus in a reflex arc is the interneuron. This neuron receives the sensory input from the sensory neuron, processes the information, and then sends signals to initiate the appropriate motor response via the motor neuron.


What is the beginning of the nervous system called?

The simplest type of nervous system response is a reflex loop, where the sensory input goes to the spinal chord (or brainstem, if it takes place in your neck) and from there the motor output is immediately returned. Only later the sensory input is transferred to and processed in the brain.


The conductor of nerve impulses that initiates reflex reaction to sensory information without input from the brain is the what?

spinal cord


How sensory input and the thalamus are important in causing an emotional response?

i do not have any idea of what this could be


What is the Role of brain in reflex action?

Reflex actions are sudden responses, which do not involve any thinking. For example, when we touch a hot object, we withdraw our hand immediately without thinking as thinking may take time which would be enough to get us burnt. The sensory nerves that detect the heat are connected to the nerves that move the muscles of the hand. Such a connection of detecting the signal from the nerves (input) and responding to it quickly (output) is called a reflex arc. The reflex arcs −connections present between the input and output nerves − meet in a bundle in the spinal cord. Reflex arcs are formed in the spinal cord and the information (input) reaches the brain. The brain is only aware of the signal and the response that has taken place. However, the brain has no role to play in the creation of the response.


Why does reflex reinforcement work?

Instead of being processed in the brain, a reflex arc is processed in the vertebra, this allows for faster reflexes. Example of when the reflex arc is used is when a person touches a hot stove. The immediate response (which the reflex arc causes) is to pull away, but it doesn't really hurt till a few seconds after. This is because the brain was first bypassed, but has now had time to process what happened.


How does organization work?

The organ system work together as the nervous system recieves sensory input from internal and external sensory reports and directs the musculoskeleton system and gland to response the outside stimuli.


How do autonomic nervous system reflex arcs work?

ANS reflex arcs are stimulated by input from sensory or visceral receptors. The signals are processed in the hypothalamus (or regions of the spinal cord) and target effector control is then regulated via myelinated preganglionic neurons


How does organ system work?

The organ system work together as the nervous system recieves sensory input from internal and external sensory reports and directs the musculoskeleton system and gland to response the outside stimuli.


How do the three types of neurons work together to produce a response to an environmental stimulus?

They are sensory input, integration, and motor output. It sends signals to the brain.


Describe the reflex arc?

A reflex arc is the neural pathway that mediates a reflex action. In higher animals, most sensory neurons do not pass directly into the brain, but synapse in the spinal cord. This characteristic allows reflex actions to occur relatively quickly by activating spinal motor neurons without the delay of routing signals through the brain, although the brain will receive sensory input while the reflex action occurs.


When stub your toe the information is sent to the brain using?

The sensory nervous system which is an input system to the brain. If you pull the toe (leg) away that is the motor system. This involves the muscles. The two together form a reflex arc.
