The Human Reflex Physiology Review Sheet states that "Conversely, other reflexes require the involvement of the brain, since many different inputs must be evaluated before the appropriate reflex is determined. Superficial cord reflexes and pupillary responses to light are in this category" (p. 342).
What else can I help you with?
What part of the brain controls reflexes?
Reflexes are primarily controlled by the spinal cord, which sends immediate signals to muscles to respond to a stimulus without involving the brain. However, the brain can modulate and regulate reflex responses through higher brain centers to some extent.
What part of the brain is responsible for eating and licking reflexes?
The part of the brain responsible for eating are appetite centers of the amygdala and hypothalamus. The licking reflex is seen only certain animals but the centers are located in the medulla oblongata in the lower brainstem.
What are the differences between long and short reflexes?
I believe a short reflex is when one is partially aroused, as during a bumpy car ride or Kate Winslet's nude scene in Titanic. A long reflex is when the member becomes fully hugified, as during any Paul Walker movie.
Reflexes are not carried to the brain?
Reflexes are actually carried to the brain through sensory neurons that send signals to the spinal cord. The spinal cord processes the incoming sensory information and coordinates a quick response, sometimes without direct involvement of the brain. This allows for rapid reflex actions to occur without the need for conscious thought.
Does the brainstem contain centers for speech and motor?
Yes, the brainstem contains centers for controlling various essential functions including breathing, heart rate, and digestion. However, speech and precise motor movements are primarily controlled by regions in the cerebral cortex, particularly in the frontal lobe.
What are two somatic reflexes in which the higher brain centers participate?
The Human Reflex Physiology Review Sheet states that "Conversely, other reflexes require the involvement of the brain, since many different inputs must be evaluated before the appropriate reflex is determined. Superficial cord reflexes and pupillary responses to light are in this category" (p. 342).
The messages involved in automatic reflexes are coordinated by reflex centers in the brain?

What part of the brain controls reflexes?

Where are the main integrating centers for most autonomic reflexes?
The primary autonomic center of the brain is the Medulla Oblongata which is responsible for autonomic functions such as breathing, heart rate and blood pressure.
What Part of the brain responsible for licking and eating reflexes?
The part of the brain responsible for eating are appetite centers of the amygdala and hypothalamus. The licking reflex is seen only certain animals but the centers are located in the medulla oblongata in the lower brainstem.
What part of the brain is responsible for eating and licking reflexes?

Is it true or false that the messages involved inautomatic reflexes are coordinated by reflex centers in the brain?
False. Reflex actions are typically coordinated by reflex arcs involving the spinal cord rather than reflex centers in the brain. The spinal cord can process and respond to certain stimuli without involving higher brain centers, allowing for quick and automatic responses.
What digestive system reflexes that involve the brain are called?
Long reflexes
Automatic activities that are not programmed by the cortex are called what?
Automatic activities that are not programmed by the cortex are called reflexes. These are involuntary responses to stimuli that are controlled by the spinal cord and lower brain centers, without involvement of conscious thought or decision-making processes.
Is somatic part of the brain?
Head
What are the differences between long and short reflexes?
I believe a short reflex is when one is partially aroused, as during a bumpy car ride or Kate Winslet's nude scene in Titanic. A long reflex is when the member becomes fully hugified, as during any Paul Walker movie.
