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.

There are three different types of neurone: sensory, relay and motor - which are involved in a reflex arc.
protons, neutrons, and electrons are the subatomic particles involved with an atom
The three types of neurons are sensory(afferant) neurons, interneurons, and motor(efferant) neurons. Sensory, or afferent, neurons send information from the receptor to the central nervouse system. Interneurons, found only in the central nervous system, play the role of interpretting the impulse. The motor, or efferent, neurons send the information from the central nervous system to the effector. Receptor->sensory neuron->interneuron->motor neuron->effector.
Reflex actions are governed by three neurons only. If some body tries to hit on your eye, you blink by reflex action. Here again only three neurons are involved, although the middle neuron passes through your brain. Reflex action means only three neurons are involved and that saves lot of time required to think over the serious matter. So in reflex action you respond first and then brain notice the problem.The spinal reflex is fast. The reason it is fast is because the decisions are made at spinal cord level, rather than the nerves having to travel up to the brain and back down to the source.Because you are able to react quicker without having to think about it.1 It reduces the work load of brain. 2 The reflex action is under control of spinal cord, the message is sent to the brain later on.If it would have been under control of brain, it would have reqired longer duration for us to react, which has potential to cause damage to body tissue. Hence presence of spinal cord increases efficiency of reflex action.
Yes, swallowing is a reflex action of which there are three phases. These are the oral phase, the pharyngeal phase and the esophageal phase.
A neural impulse is similar to an electrical signal in three ways: 1. there are electrical voltages involved in the movement of the neural impulse; 2. an electrical signal can convey information, as can a neural impulse; 3. an electrical signal can cause an action, like a car starter switch starting the engine, and a neural impulse can cause a muscle to contract to move a limb. (note that with respect to the voltages involved in the neural impulse, the voltages are created by the movement of chemicals, charged particles called ions, somewhat similar to how batteries produce voltages.) (also note that the neural impulse is the signal which moves along the axon, as an action potential.)
Protons and neutrons are made up of three quarkseach.
You have three neurons in the reflex arc. You have the afferent, the intermediate and efferent neurons in the reflex arc. So the answer is intermediate neuron.
The autonomic nervous system consists of the sympathetic nervous system, which prepares the body for fight or flight responses, and the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes rest and digestion.
3 neurons are included in the reflex arc. They are: Afferent neurons (take the message to the spinal cord) (sensory) Association neurons (directs message to the efferent neuron and the brain) (report reflex to the brain) Efferent neurons (takes message to effector) (motor) Not all reflexes have interneurons.
Protons, neutrons and electrons; protons and neutrons are composed from quarks and gluons.
