When you jerk your hand away from a hot stove, you are activating your body's reflex arc. This involves sensory neurons detecting the heat and sending a signal to your spinal cord. The spinal cord then sends a signal to your muscle cells, causing them to contract and move your hand away from the source of heat without conscious thought.
What else can I help you with?
Where does the message go first when you put your hand on a hot stove?
When you put your hand on a hot stove, the message of pain is first transmitted from the sensory receptors in your skin to your spinal cord before being sent to your brain for processing. This rapid response is to protect your body from harm by signaling you to move your hand away from the source of heat.
When your hand touches a hot stove you immediately and reflexively pull it away This action was controlled by what?
This action was controlled by your nervous system's reflex arc. Sensory neurons in your hand detected the heat and sent signals to your spinal cord, which then activated motor neurons to quickly retract your hand, bypassing the brain to allow for a faster response to potential danger.
Which event is an example of conduction?
An example of conduction is when you touch a hot stove and feel the heat transferring from the stove to your hand.
What is the kind of heat you feel when you touch a hot stove?
The heat you feel when you touch a hot stove is conducted heat, which occurs when your hand comes into direct contact with the hot surface of the stove. Heat energy transfers from the stove to your hand through the process of conduction.
Why is burning your hand on the stove an example of conduction?
Burning your hand on the stove is an example of conduction because heat is transferred from the hot stove directly to your hand through physical contact. The molecules in the stove transfer their kinetic energy to the molecules in your hand, causing it to heat up and burn.
When you jerk your hand away from a hot stove you are activating your?
nervouse system
When you jerk your hand away from a hot stove you are activating your what?
Oh, what a wonderful question! When you jerk your hand away from a hot stove, you are activating your body's natural defense mechanism called the reflex arc. It's like a little guardian angel inside you, working quickly to protect you from harm. Just remember, your body is always looking out for you, like a trusted friend.
When you touch a hot pan on the stove with your hand you quickly move your hand away your hands movement is the?
its a reaction....
If you were to put your hand on the stove what system would react?
it is actually called a "spinal reflex" and is sensed and processed by the spinal chord which sends out a motor message. that's how we move our hand away without actually feeling the heat or pain as it doesn't go as far as the brain
A cook touches a hot stove and quickly moves his hand away What are the two primary body systems that work together to produce this response?
This involves your nervous and muscular systems. When you tough the hot pan, a sensory neuron (nerve cell) will send a message to your central nervous system, which will relay the message through a motor neuron to your muscles to then contract your muscles and pull your hand off the hot stove.
Why does your hand get hotter when you put it above a stove?
Because the heat from the stove rises to your hand and makes your hand hotter.
Is the sudden withdrawal of ones hand from a hot stove a reflex?
The reflex action of burning your hand would be jerking your hand away from the source of the heat
What are the sequence of events that occur within the nervous system from the point you touched the hot stove with your hand to the point you jerked your hand away from the stove?
1. Sensory Receptors detect danger(eg. hot stove in this case) 2. Signal is sent through a sensory neuron to the spinal cord 3.Interneuron in the spinal cord relays the message to the motor neuron 4.Motor neuron sends a message to the effector(eg. muscle) 5. Hand jerks away Sensory neuron also sends a sinal to the brain. Sensation of the evernt is detected continuosly but usually after the defensive action has been taken.

If you put your hand over a stove is that radiation?
No that is just a hand over the stove. If the stove element is turned on and you place your hand close to the element you will feel heat. This is heat radiation, the same as when you feel the heat from the sun, also heat radiation.
How does a brain respond to a message?
It will either note the incoming bit of information or it will cause a response. For example: that stove is hot and move that hand away with those muscles.
