An interaction with the world.


Learning that makes a reflex response to a stimulus other than the original natural stimulus that naturally produces the reflex?

This type of learning is known as classical conditioning. In classical conditioning, a neutral stimulus is paired with an unconditioned stimulus, which elicits an unconditioned response. Over time, the neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus that elicits a conditioned response. Famous experiments carried out by Ivan Pavlov with dogs are a classic example of classical conditioning.


When you touch something hot a neuron in your fingers senses the temperature which best decscribes the first reaction the neuron has?

Ions flow into the neuron. An action potential forms moves along the neuron. A response occurs, here, an aversion response... your body pulls your hand and finger away.


How does the nervous tissue cause action?

The stimulus sends a signal to the sensory neurons, the sensory neuron brings it to the spinal cord or brain as the interneuron continues bringing the message. When it reaches the brain, the brain makes a decision, and sends it back down the spinal cord with the interneuron and passes the decision to a motor neuron. The motor neuron carries the decision to the designated muscle, and the muscle makes the move. Obviously all of this happens within a second. You wouldn't notice your reaction to the stimulus until it has happened since you react to stimulus very often. I'm sorry if this is a bit off topic, but I .


What happens after the spinal cord makes a decision in a reflex?

There are no "decisions" involved in a reflex. Generally the response is to trigger whatever motor nerves move the affected area away from the stimulus.


What is the reflex action when you jump in a scary movie?

1. Stimulus; Horror Movies 2. Sound Receptor Stimulated; The Eyes/ Sight and the Ears/ Sound are the only senses that makes you jump when watching a scary movie, (Your taste or touch doesn't make you jump when watching a scary movie) 3. Signal sent along Sensory Neuron 4. Signal passed along Relay Neuron (message sent to Brain) 5. Signal sent along Motor Neuron 5. Effect or Muscle Contracts (Response) ________________________________________________ So the Reflex Action is your Muscles because they respond to the Receptor !!!!


If a signal from a sending neuron makes the receiving neuron more negative inside?

The receiving neuron is less likely to generate action potential.

How is the brain involved in a reflex arc?

yes brain i s involved in reflex actions as it makes a pathway for sensory neuron to connect with and brain then directs the motor neuron to take a particular action which is given by effector !(muscles)
