Most of them are controlled by the spinal column.

What controls a reflex?
spinal cord
Is reflex action and reflex arcs are same?
Reflexes are uncontrollable movements that happen almost instantly in response to a stimuli. A reflex arc, a neuronal circuit that controls reflexes, is where reflex activities takes place.
What cranial nerve controls sneezing reflex?
Nervus trigeminus (V)
What is atrial reflex?
Atrial reflex is also known as the Bainbridge reflex which is an increase in heart rate due to central venous pressure of the heart. The atrial reflex controls the heart rate more so in dogs than in humans or other primates.
What controls reflex actions?
Reflex actions are controlled by the spinal cord and do not involve conscious thought process. When a specific stimulus is detected by sensory receptors, the spinal cord quickly responds by sending signals to motor neurons to produce a reflex response. This rapid reaction allows the body to respond swiftly to potential danger or harm.
The sensory receptor sensory neuron motor neuron and effector involved in a reflex form a?
The sensory receptor, sensory neuron, motor neuron, and effector involved in a reflex form a reflex arc. This is a neural pathway that controls a reflex action in response to a stimulus without conscious thought.
Is the pupillary light reflex autonomic and somatic?
Yes, the pupillary light reflex is mediated by both autonomic and somatic nervous systems. The autonomic nervous system controls the constriction of the pupil in response to light, while the somatic nervous system controls the movement of the muscles that dilate and constrict the pupil.
What is the function of superior colliculus?
Controls reflex of turning eyes and head towards a visual stimulus.
What part of the central nervous system controls reflexes?
A reflex arc is a neutral pathway in the central nervous system. It controls reflex action. The sensory neurons do not directly pass into brain but go through spinal chord. Spinal chord can independently control many reflexes.
What structure controls simple reflexes?
Reflex responses are controlled in your spinal chord, not in your brain (;- your welcome
What happens if you have no knee reflex?
If you have no knee reflex, it may indicate issues with the nerve that controls your reflexes, damage to the spinal cord, or a neurological disorder. It's important to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.
What part of brain controls pupil dilation?
Edinger-Westphal nucleus of the brainstem controls the pupil reflex. An ER doctor who looks at the response to a pen light is checking on brain stem activity.
