What else can I help you with?
What is the effector in a gag reflex?
The effector in a gag reflex is the contraction of muscles involved in swallowing, including the pharyngeal muscles in the throat. These muscle contractions help to expel any foreign objects that stimulate the back of the throat, triggering the gag reflex.
What are the effector muscles of the withdrawal reflex?
Flexor Muscles
Is the brain an effector in the autonomic nervous system?
The brain is not an effector. An effector refers to the glands and muscles doing activity.
What muscle is involved with the patellar reflex?
The quadriceps group of muscles. Rectus Femoris more specifically.
What are effector organs?
Muscles or glands which carry out the responses
What is the effector of a nose?
The effector of the nose is the muscles that control the movement of the nostrils and the upper lip, allowing for actions like flaring the nostrils or wrinkling the nose. The effector muscles work in response to signals from the brain to adjust the position and shape of the nose.
What is the name of the neuron that contacts the effector organ?
Motor neurons are able to create a response in effector organs, muscles and glands by sending signals to them.
What is the effector for shivering?
The effector for shivering is the skeletal muscles, which generate heat through rapid and involuntary contractions to increase body temperature in response to cold environments.
Is the brain involved in a reflex arc?
yes brain i s involved in reflex actions as it makes a pathway for sensory neuron to connect with and brain then directs the motor neuron to take a particular action which is given by effector !(muscles)
What effector cells are innervated by somatic motor neurons?
cardiac muscles and smooth muscle
Is an effector of a skeletal muscle a somatic reflex?
Yes, the effector of a skeletal muscle is part of a somatic reflex. Somatic reflexes involve the contraction of skeletal muscles in response to a stimulus, and the effector in this case is the skeletal muscle itself that carries out the response.
Muscles and glands?
In terms of the nervous system, muscles and glands are given the generic term effector organs. Impulses are picked up from receptors, which then travel to the brain, which sends orders along the motor neurons to these effector organs. In the case of reflex actions, however, the brain is not involved, and the process is done much faster as a result.
