What else can I help you with?
Muscle action that is not under your control is?
Involuntary muscle action. Examples include the beating of the heart, digestion in the stomach, and reflex actions like blinking or sneezing.
Striking the tendon just below the kneecap causes the lower leg to jerk. Moving an object quickly toward the face can cause the eyes to blink shut. These are examples of?
These are examples of reflex actions. Reflex actions are automatic responses by the body to certain stimuli, processed by the spinal cord or brainstem without conscious thought.
Why don't fish have reflex actions?
Fish do have reflex actions.
What is the importance of reflex actions?
One important aspect of reflex action is to help protect us without having to think. Reflex actions are involuntary and quick. They are done to meet an emergency and occur at the level of the spinal cord. Examples include the gag reflex clearing unplanned foreign objects or your eyelid closing when something gets near your eye.
What part of the body is not a reflex action in humans?
Conscious actions, such as voluntary movements controlled by the brain, are not reflex actions in humans. These actions involve decision-making and higher brain functions, unlike reflex actions which are automatic responses to stimuli.
Which actions are not controlled by the brain?
Reflex actions are not controlled by the brain.

What part of the nervous system is not involved in producing reflex actions?
The cerebral cortex is not directly involved in producing reflex actions. Reflex actions are controlled at the spinal cord or lower levels of the brain without involvement of higher brain centers like the cerebral cortex.
In some reflex actions skeletal muscles contract without the involvement of what?
In some reflex actions, skeletal muscles contract without the involvement of conscious thought or decision-making processes from the brain. These reflex actions are controlled by the spinal cord and are known as spinal reflexes.
What are the differences between voluntary actions and reflex actions?
Voluntary actions are consciously controlled movements initiated by the brain, while reflex actions are automatic responses to stimuli that do not require conscious thought. Voluntary actions involve higher brain functions and can be modified based on individual intent, while reflex actions are typically quick, involuntary responses for immediate protection or survival.
What are automatic movements called?
Automatic movements are often referred to as reflex actions or reflexes. These are involuntary, quick responses to stimuli that are controlled by the spinal cord without conscious thought. Examples include the knee jerk reflex or blinking in response to a sudden bright light.
Action which does not require thinking?
Reflex actions do not require thinking, nor do the actions of involuntary muscles.
