What else can I help you with?
What properties are not of the stretch reflex?
It is a disynaptic reflex
What is the receptor for salivary reflex?
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.
Does A reflex arc begins with a receptor at the end of a sensory nerve?
No, a reflex arc begins with a receptor that detects a stimulus and sends a signal through a sensory nerve to the central nervous system.
Can you willfully inhibit a stretch reflex?
The stretch reflex is a normal, automatic response of the body to a sudden stretch of a muscle, controlled by the spinal cord. While it can be modulated, inhibiting it will require overriding the spinal reflex arc, which can be challenging to do willfully without external intervention. Techniques such as relaxation exercises or gradual stretching may help reduce the intensity of the stretch reflex.
What is the name of the reflex associated with the sensory stimulation of the pulmonary stretch receptors that stimulates a deeper breath upon inspiration?
The reflex associated with the sensory stimulation of the pulmonary stretch receptors is known as the Hering-Breuer reflex. It is responsible for inhibiting inspiration to prevent overinflation of the lungs, promoting expiration and maintaining normal breathing patterns.
Dynamic and static stretch reflex?
differentiate between a dynamic stretch reflex and a static stretch reflex
The patellar reflex is a type of?
The patellar reflex is a type of stretch reflex that involves tapping the patellar tendon to elicit a contraction of the quadriceps muscle and extension of the knee. This reflex helps to maintain balance and stability.
What is another name for muscle spindles?
Proprioceptors, stretch-reflex receptors.
What is a type of receptor that responds to changes in stretch of skeletal muscle and initiates a stretch reflex?
Muscle spindle receptors which are located in the belly's of muscles measure length of stretch and speed of change. They send this afferent neural information to the posterior horn of the spinal cord where and interneuron interprets the information and if the stretch is ballistic (if it changes length too rapidly) it will trigger an efferent motor unit, or many motor units, through the anterior horn of the spinal cord to contract the muscle.
What properties are not of the stretch reflex?
It is a disynaptic reflex
Is the knee-jerk reflex a simple reflex stretch reflex or a spinal reflex?
The knee-jerk reflex is a type of stretch reflex, which is a type of spinal reflex. It involves the stimulation of sensory neurons in the muscle spindles of the quadriceps muscle, leading to a quick contraction of the muscle in response to a sudden stretch.
A stretch receptor is classified as a?
Mechanoreceptor
What is the receptor for salivary reflex?
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.
What receptor will respond when vessel walls stretch?
A baroreceptor responds to stretch.
What reflex is the knee jerk reflex an example of?
knee jerk aka patellar reflex is an example of a stretch reflex
Do you still have a stretch reflex with a cervical nerve injury?
Yes, you may still have a stretch reflex with a cervical nerve injury.
The sensory receptor sensory neuron motor neuron and effector involved in a reflex form a?
The sensory receptor, sensory neuron, motor neuron, and effector involved in a reflex form a reflex arc. This is a neural pathway that controls a reflex action in response to a stimulus without conscious thought.
