Reflex is an involuntary and sudden response to stimuli. It happens to be an integral component of the famed survival instinct.

Most of the common reflexes are a response to all the well-trained, accumulated knowledge of caution that we have internalized. It could be anything and ranges from the reflex action of abruptly withdrawing the hand as it comes in contact with an extremely cold or hot object. This action is termed as the reflex action. It has a subtle relation to instinct.
