How does a stretch reflex occur?
The receptor in the reflex arc of a stretch reflex are 'muscle spindles' which are spindle shaped receptors distributed throughout the belly of the muscle. when the muscle gets stretched , muscle spindle is stimulated and it sends proprioceptive impulses via sensory afferent fibers in posterior root to anterior horn cells of the spinal cord. Motor impulses from anterior horn cells via motor efferent fibers in anterior root to muscle.

What occurs when muscles are overworked or overstretched what is it?
Tear would occur in the muscle, and fluid would often build up and cause the muscle to swell. The best thing to do for treatment is to either get some ice and elevate the posture of your pulled muscle, keep the ice on it up to 24 hours or just elevate it and rest it at, home it will soon go away. It usually lasts up to 2-3 weeks. Movement is restricted because of the pain, so don't try to move it or it will probably strain a lot more if if you take a wrong move.
What does paralysing mean?
Being unable to move, usually caused by an injury to the spinal cord.
What happens to aging muscle cells?
When a human being is aging, their muscle cells also tend to age. Because of this, the muscle cells become weaker and the body is more prone to injury.

What causes sprains?
Sprains are caused by a strain or tear in a muscle or tendon. Usually it is just a stretch that is too far so it caused great pain, but a bad sprain would be a rip or even a complete tear.
