Answer:

A reflex, or reflex action, is an involuntary and nearly instantaneous movement in response to a stimulus. A reflex is made possible by neural pathways called reflex arcs which can act on an impulse before that impulse reaches the brain.

Reflex action is defined as an unconscious and involuntary response of effectors to a stimulus. Example, on touching a hot object (stimulus), we immediately remove our hand from it. Other example from daily life are watering of mouth on seeing food, sneezing, blinking of eyes and yawning.
