The effectors of the salivary reflex are glands
The receptor for the salivary reflex is primarily taste receptors located in the taste buds on the tongue. These receptors detect the presence of food in the mouth, which triggers the salivary reflex and leads to the production of saliva.
PNS delivers motor response from CNS to effectors...
The brain is not one of the essential components of a reflex arc. Reflex arcs involve sensory receptors, afferent neurons, interneurons, efferent neurons, and effectors, but they do not involve the brain in the reflex loop.
In the reflex arc, a muscle or gland is considered to be the effector. Its role is to respond to the stimulus provided by the sensory neuron and produce the appropriate action, such as muscle contraction or gland secretion.
The neurons that send processed information to effectors are called motor neurons. After the central nervous system processes sensory input, motor neurons transmit signals to muscles or glands (the effectors) to initiate a response or action. This pathway is crucial for voluntary movements and reflex actions.
Muscles and glands are the possible effectors of a reflex arc
Flexor Muscles
Effectors of a reflex arc are primarily muscles and glands. Muscles are responsible for carrying out the response by contracting or relaxing, while glands may secrete hormones in response to the stimulus.

In some circumstances I guess so.

The skeletal muscle cells that are the effectors of the withdrawal reflex are the muscles that move the limb away from the painful stimulus. These muscles receive signals from the central nervous system to contract and move the limb as part of the reflex response to protect the body from harm.
Not really reflex but the presence of food stimulates salivary gland. Sometimes even just the smell or sight of certain food do.
they are located in the limbs, because the limbs are the effectors of the withdrawal reflex.

The parasympathetic nervous system stimulates salivary gland secretion, and accelerates peristalsis, so, in keeping with the rest and digest functions, appropriate PNS activity mediates digestion of food and indirectly, the absorption of nutrients.
