What is the order of a visceral reflex?

The order of a visceral reflex involves sensory receptors detecting a stimulus, which then sends signals via afferent neurons to the central nervous system.

Why need trigger in sql server 2000?

Why not trigger in SQL Server 2000? I think you need to understand what the definition of a database trigger is in this case. A database trigger is simply code that the database system will trigger when a certain event occurs. The classic example is having a multi-table order system that has the order # in one table and parts ordered linked in a orderDetails table, with the order pointing to the product description in a separate table. So a useful trigger would be that when an order gets deleted from the order table, all the matching order detail rows in the orderDetails table get deleted. Hope this helps.
