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.
output to upper motor neuron
Interneurons(also called relay neuron, association neuron, connector neuron or local circuit neuron) are multipolar neurons that connects sensory neurons to motor neurons.
The component that determines the response to a stimulus in a reflex arc is the interneuron. This neuron receives the sensory input from the sensory neuron, processes the information, and then sends signals to initiate the appropriate motor response via the motor neuron.

Monosynaptic reflex
Withdrawal reflex or flexor reflex employs sensory neuron, interneuron and motor neuron.
A reflex arc.
The patellar reflex is an example of a 2-neuron reflex arc. It has 1 sensory neuron and 1 motor neuron. It does not contain an association neuron and so is considered the most simple reflex in humans.

A reflex arch includes a receptor, senory neuron, a ref;ex center composed of interneurons, motor neuron, and effector.
Five parts of a reflex arc are the receptor, sensory neuron (afferent), integration center, motor neuron (efferent), and effector.
An abdominal reflex is a superficial skin reflex. Its absense indicate an upper motor neuron lesion.
