What else can I help you with?
The simplest reflexes are mediated at the level of the?
spinal cord
How does the cerebral cortex overrides the reflex?
The cerebral cortex can not over ride reflexes. Reflex are mediated at the level of the spinal cord.
What the difference between superficial and deep reflexe?
Superficial reflexes are responses elicited by stimulation of the skin or mucous membranes, such as the withdrawal reflex or the abdominal reflex, and are typically mediated by the spinal cord and the brainstem. In contrast, deep reflexes, also known as deep tendon reflexes, involve muscle stretch and are usually assessed through tendon taps, like the knee-jerk reflex, and are primarily mediated at the spinal cord level. Superficial reflexes often involve more complex neural pathways and higher brain functions, whereas deep reflexes are more direct and can occur without brain involvement.
Do reflexes always involve the spinal cord?
Yes, the spinal cord controls ALL of your reflexes!
What responsible for autonomic reflexes?
spinal cord
What is the superficial cord reflex?
The superficial cord reflex, also known as the cutaneous reflex, is a protective response where a sudden, unexpected touch or pressure on the skin causes a reflexive movement away from the source. This reflex helps to protect the body from potential harm or injury.
Why reflexes are quickly?
reflexes work very quickly, this is because your brain and spinal cord are processing data and information.
If someone has a severed spine reflex still occurs?
Yes. Even though the spinal cord is severed, all the reflexes still work both above and below the severed spinal cord.
Do reflexes occur in the spinal cord?
the spinal cords role in reflexes is to help you move about when it is needed when reacting to a stimuli
Spinal reflexes are produced in what?
Introduction. Spinal cord reflexes are simple behaviors produced by central nervous system (CNS) pathways that lie entirely within the spinal cord. The sensory afferent fibers that evoke these reflexes enter the spinal cord and activate spinal motor neurons directly or through a chain of one or more spinal interneurons
What are the three major functions of the spinal cord?
conduction,locomotion,reflexes
What is the area of the nervous system that is responsible for mediating reflexes?
The spinal cord.
