What kind of reflex arc does not require an inter neuron?

A monosynaptic reflex arc does not require an interneuron. In this type of reflex arc, the sensory neuron communicates directly with the motor neuron in the spinal cord or brainstem, resulting in a quick and simple reflex response.


What reflex has at least one interneuron placed between the sensory and motor neurons?

The withdrawal reflex, such as the withdrawal of a hand from a hot stove, involves at least one interneuron placed between the sensory neuron carrying the pain signal and the motor neuron causing the muscle to move away from the source of the pain.


Which does not constitute part of a two-neuron reflex?

A two-neuron reflex typically involves a sensory neuron carrying information from a sensory receptor to the spinal cord, where it synapses with an interneuron. The interneuron then synapses with a motor neuron that carries the response signal to an effector organ, such as a muscle or gland. In this pathway, a third neuron would not typically be involved in a two-neuron reflex.


Do stretch reflex have interneuron?

Yes, the stretch reflex involves a simple monosynaptic pathway between sensory neurons and motor neurons without the involvement of interneurons in the spinal cord.


Which component of a reflex arc is located entirely within the central nervous system?

Many authors refer to the CNS portion of the reflex arc as the integration center.In regards to a monosynaptic reflex arc, the synapse is the only portion of the integration center.Polysynaptic reflex arcs, have multiple synapses and interneuron(s).

What are three different types of nerves?

In a typical reflex arc, the 3 kinds are: # sensory # interneuron # and motor.


what type of reflex is the knee?

The knee reflex is also called the knee-jerk reflex by tapping the patellar tendon with a reflex hammer. This sends sensory information to the spinal cord at L4 and motor information back to the Quadriceps in the thigh (relaxing the hamstrings). This is reflex requires only two neurons. No interneuron. And so is very rapid. It is important in balance and posture.

What are the 5 steps to a reflex arc?

Arrival of stimulus, Activation of a sensory neuron, Information processing by an interneuron, Activation of a motor neuron, The response by an effector. Straight out of my anatomy text book.

What is the location of an interneuron in a spinal reflex pathway?

Interneurons are located in the spinal cord. They act as the middlemen in transmitting signals between sensory neurons (that detect stimuli) and motor neurons (that generate a response). In a spinal reflex pathway, after receiving sensory input from a sensory neuron, the interneuron processes the information before signaling the motor neuron to carry out a response.
