is a mediated in a manner similar to the knee jerk reflex: activation of the receptor, transmission of a sensory information to the CNS, the processing of the information by the CNS, and the motor response sent to the effector organ.

What type of reflex leads to secretion of saliva?
Not really reflex but the presence of food stimulates salivary gland. Sometimes even just the smell or sight of certain food do.
Examples of visceral reflexes?
An example of a visceral reflex would be the things your stomach has to do to digest food. There are sensory receptors that get stimulated when food is present and they tell other cells to get on with the work of digestion by a visceral (internal organ) reflex. Your digestive system has so many of these that the network involved with this is sometimes called the second brain.
How do visceral reflex arcs differ from somatic?
An autonomic reflex arc is similar to the somatic kind, but differs principally in the motor output side. The sensory side is similar in that a transducer sends a signal via a nerve fiber into the CNS. As with the somatic arc, this sensory fiber is associated with a pseudo-unipolar neuron in a craniospinal ganglion, usually one of the dorsal root ganglia. In the autonomic arc, the sensory transducer is often located in or associated with visceral organs.
Which area of the brain is the main visceral control center of body?
The hypothalamus is the main visceral control center of the body and is vitally important to overall body homeostasis. Few tissues in the body escape its influence.
What is the primary reflex center for the body?
Nervous system
Does visceral reflex arcs have two sensory neurons?
No, it has 2 visceral motor neurons. A visceral reflex has a receptor, a sensory neuron, a processing center, and 2 visceral motor neurons.
What is the deference between an autonomic reflex and a visceral reflex?
They have different names :L

What function does the medulla perform?
The medulla contains an autonomic reflex center involved in maintaining homeostasis of important visceral organs. Including the cardiac center which adjusts force and rate of heart contraction and the vasomotor center that regulates blood pressure by acting on smooth muscle in the walls of peripheral arterioles. Lastly, the respiratory center which controls the depth and rhythm of breathing.
What is a reflex center and what does it do?
medulla oblongata
Where are the headquarters of the Visceral Dance Center?
The Visceral Dance Center headquarters is located at 2820 N Elston Avenue in Chicago, Illinois. This dance center is usually open from 9:00 in the morning to 11:00 at night. The dance center's phone number is (773) 772-1771.
When was Ukrainian Processing Center created?
Ukrainian Processing Center was created in 1997.
What role does the brain play in a reflex response?
withdrawal reflex involves the processing of brain. it integrates with cerebellar activity
