The peripheral nerves and the spinal cord.
When a reflex starts, the peripheral nerves in the arms or legs send a signal to the spinal cord. Normally that signal is sent on to the brain for processing. In a reflex, the spinal cord itself sends a response back to the arm or leg to move immediately.
What else can I help you with?
What part of the brain is responsible for helping you run and catch the bus?
That part is called as hypothalamus. It is supposed to be highest centre for the autonomic nervous system. You need the sympathetic nervous system to run and catch the bus. Sympathetic nervous system is the part of the autonomic nervous system.
What is the system cerebrum in?
The cerebrum is part of the the nervous system.
Is a effector are skeletal muscles a somatic reflex or a autonomic reflex?
Skeletal muscles, which are effectors, are involved in somatic reflexes. Somatic reflexes involve voluntary control of skeletal muscles and are part of the somatic nervous system. Autonomic reflexes, on the other hand, involve the control of smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands, and are part of the autonomic nervous system.
Is the brain part of the cardiovascular system?
No, the brain is not part of the cardiovascular system. The cardiovascular system consists of the heart and blood vessels responsible for pumping and circulating blood throughout the body. The brain is part of the central nervous system and controls cognitive and physiological functions.
What is the main function of the nervous?
The nervous system's main function is to communicate with and control every part of the body, whether it be voluntary or involuntary. It controls every reflex, action, emotion, and thought.
Why is the patellar reflex called a somatic reflex?
The Patellar reflex is an example of a somatic reflex. This refers to the branch of the nervous system that the reflex pertains to. The somatic branch is part of the Peripheral Nervous system, meaning that it's reflex arc does not pass through the central nervous system (the spinal cord and the brain)
Is a reflex arc part of the central nervous system peripheral or both?
A reflex arc includes components of both the central and peripheral nervous systems.
What is the majorparts of the nervous system?
Nervous system consist of two parts,central nervous system and autonomous nervous system.Cerebral cortex,hypothalamus,thalamus,medulla oblongata,cerebellum are part of brain ,it is central nervous system with spinal cord.Autonomic nervous system consist of sympathetic and parasympathetic ganglion s which is responsible for fight or flight reflex to survive in danger.
What is the importance of reflex hammer?
It is a tool used to assess part of the nervous system.
Which part of the nervous system is used to coordinate a reflex response?
A spinal reflex is a reflex that is centered in the spinal cord. The parts of the nervous system in one of these include the spinal cord as well as deep tendon nerves and sensory nerves.
What part of the nervous system are responsible for a heart rate of 120 bpm?
sympathetic nervous system
If the doctor swabs the back of your throat and you gag is this somatic or autonomic reflexes?
The gag reflex is an involuntary reflex, therefore it is an autonomic reflex. The peripheral nervous system is the part of the nervous system outside the central nervous system (which consists of the brain and spinal cord). The peripheral nervous system is split into two parts - the somatic nervous system and the autonomic system. The somatic system controls voluntary skeletal muscle movements and the autonomic system controls involuntary or automatic actions.
Does the nervous system control your blinking and sneezing?
The medulla oblongata is responsible for regulating several basic functions of the autonomic nervous system, including respiration, cardiac function, vasodilation, and reflexes like vomiting, coughing, sneezing, and swallowing.
What organ system does the brain belong too?
The nervous system The central nervous system
What part of the brain is responsible for helping you run and catch the bus?
That part is called as hypothalamus. It is supposed to be highest centre for the autonomic nervous system. You need the sympathetic nervous system to run and catch the bus. Sympathetic nervous system is the part of the autonomic nervous system.
Which division of the nervous system is responsible for the calming or relaxing of the body?
The division of the nervous system responsible for calming or relaxing the body is the parasympathetic nervous system. This system is part of the autonomic nervous system and activates the "rest and digest" response, promoting relaxation, reducing heart rate, and facilitating digestion. It counterbalances the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for the "fight or flight" response.
What is the system cerebrum in?
The cerebrum is part of the the nervous system.
