Question

what is the difference between reflex action and reflex arc..​

Answer 1

Reflex action is an involuntary action by the body. Reflex is an action generated by the body in response to the environment. Reflex arcs are formed in the spinal cord itself, although the information input goes on to reach the brain. A reflex arc is a neural pathway that controls an action reflex.

Answer 2

Reflex action :-

the involuntary functioning or movement of any organ or body part in response to a particular stimulus which occurs in very short duration of time(within a second usually)  and does not involve will or any thinking of brain is called reflex action.

Reflection arc :-

reflex arc is the path followed by nerve impulses to produce the reflex action. It usually includes receptor organ, afferent nerve, nerve center, efferent nerve, effector organ or a muscle.
