nociceptors and mechanoreceptors (respond to touch, temp and pain)
The nerve impulse travels through the reflex arc. It travels from the sensor through the sensory neurone, through the spinal cord and motor neurone to the effector muscle.
First, do you're own anatomy homework in the future. Second, the number of synapses effects the overall time it takes for the signal to go through the reflex arc.
Reflex Arc
Homeostasis works as a negative feedback mechanism, which is a kind of reflex action. When the body detects changes in external/internal environment, the receptor will generate a nerve impulse to the coordination centre and then make a response through effector. This is a reflex arc.
The short pathway that carries the impulse for an automatic response is called a reflex arc.

A reflex arc doesn't go all the way up to the brain. Thus it NEVER becomes part of the thought process.

They are neurons and not neutrons. You have afferent neuron. Then you have intermediate neuron and then you have the efferent neuron in the reflex arc.

A reflex arc does not pass through the brain. The somatic reflex arc and autonomic reflex arc are two types.
The pathway that an impulse travels from your foot back to your leg is an example of a reflex arc. A reflex arc includes a sensory receptor (in this case, a receptor in your toe), sensory neuron, motor neuron, and effector (leg muscle). Some reflex arcs include interneurons. In other reflex arcs, a sensory neuron communicates directly with a motor neuron.
