What is the name of the muscle that move only when you think about performing an action?

The brain


What are the advantages of the fact that most reflex actions are governed by spinal cord?

Reflex actions are governed by three neurons only. If some body tries to hit on your eye, you blink by reflex action. Here again only three neurons are involved, although the middle neuron passes through your brain. Reflex action means only three neurons are involved and that saves lot of time required to think over the serious matter. So in reflex action you respond first and then brain notice the problem.The spinal reflex is fast. The reason it is fast is because the decisions are made at spinal cord level, rather than the nerves having to travel up to the brain and back down to the source.Because you are able to react quicker without having to think about it.1 It reduces the work load of brain. 2 The reflex action is under control of spinal cord, the message is sent to the brain later on.If it would have been under control of brain, it would have reqired longer duration for us to react, which has potential to cause damage to body tissue. Hence presence of spinal cord increases efficiency of reflex action.


What part of the brain is associated with clapping hands?

The primary motor cortex, located in the frontal lobe of the brain, is responsible for coordinating voluntary movements such as clapping hands. This region sends signals to the muscles involved in the action.


What part of the brain controls posture?

Action potential in the brain


What role does the brain play in a reflex response?

The brain initiates a reflex response by sending signals down the spinal cord to the specific muscle or organ involved. However, the actual reflex action occurs at the level of the spinal cord, without the need for input from the brain. This allows for a quicker and more automatic response to potentially harmful stimuli.

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 is a hormone in the brain involved in sleep memory and depression?

The one I would think of first is melatonin. It is not only a brain hormone, but also the main pigment in both skin and hair.
