What part of in pupil reflex for stimulus?
The stimulus in the pupil reflex would be light
What are the example of reflex action?
When something like a hot object touches your hand, your receptors send impulses down the sensory neurone which then takes the impulses to the relay neurone (co-ordinator) which then sends the impulses to the motor neurone which goes in the opposite direction to an effector organ. This then reflexes your hand away from the hot object.
What does the ciliospinal reflex do to the pupil of the eye?
The pupil dilates when stimulated by the pinching on the nape of the neck.
How does the pupil shrinking reflex protct the eye?
it makes the eye explode that is what it does
Which animals respond to stimuli?
A reflex is an automatic response to a stimulus. Humans use reflex actions in only some of their behaviour, for example controlling the eye's pupil size. Simple reflexes. Simple reflexes produce rapid involuntary responses to a stimulus.
Example of reflex action?
reacting when someone flashes his or her hand to your face that includes blinking-------------------------------------------------------A reflex action is a sudden reaction to a stimuli (a change in the environment) & often acts to protect you.Some are controlled by the brain (cranial reflexes) such as when you blink as dust lands in your eye, or your pupil gets smaller as light is shone in your eye.Some reflexes are controlled by the spinal cord (spinal reflexes) such as when you touch a hot object or stand on a pin.Some reflexes can have learnt responses so they are calledconditioned reflexes. These reflexes occur without you even thinking about them e.g. walking & producing saliva when you smell food.

What is the consensual reflex of the pupil?
the pupil gets smaller because there is an abundance of light present.
Is a pupil autonomic reflex?
yes
In the experiment on the photopupillary reflex what happened to the pupil of the nonilluminated eye?
Pupil Dilates
What does the ciliospinal reflex do to the pupil of the eye?
The pupil dilates when stimulated by the pinching on the nape of the neck.
What reflexes classified as somatic reflexes?
There are 5 somatic reflexes, stretch (spinal), crossed extensor (spinal), superficial cord (spinal), corneal (cranial), and gag (cranial).Involuntary automatic responses to sensory stimulation, for example, the knee-jerk reaction when tapped.Note: Reflexes, such as the contraction / dilation of the pupil, salivation when hungry are all controlled by autonomic reflexes.
When is a person considered dead?
Someone is considered dead when one cannot breathe without assistance, has no coughing or gagging reflex, has no pupil response to light, has no blinking reflex when the cornea is touched, has no grimace reflex when the head is rotated or ears are flushed with ice water, and has no response to pain.
What is a reflex why is it important?
An involuntary action that is performed by our body in response to something is known as reflex action. It is important for our immediate survival or you can say helps us to respond quickly to anything that can harm us.
How does the pupil shrinking reflex protct the eye?
it makes the eye explode that is what it does
