Answer 1

Answer:

Sudden action in response to something in the environment is called the reflex action. The path through which signals are transmitted from a receptor to a muscle or a gland is called a reflex arc. Sensory neurons carry signals from receptors to the spinal cord and brain. Motor neurons carry signals from the CNS to effectors.

A reflex action is an involuntary and nearly instantaneous movement in response to a stimulus. It occurs when the body responds to a stimulus without the involvement of the brain. The contraction of the pupils of the eyes, when exposed to bright light, is a perfect example of a reflex action.The pathways that cause a reflex action are called reflex arcs.
