All of the following are true concerning reflex arcs EXCEPT
A.they involve a few neurons and directly enter and immediately leave the spinal cord
B.they are used to prevent harm
C.they are subconscious and automatic
D.they only use the PNS and not the CNS
Your hand touches the surface of a hot stove. Without thinking, you immediately pull your hand away.
The correct order of the components of the reflex arc that pulls your hand away is:
a.
sensory receptors → sensory neurons → motor neurons → interneurons → effectors
b.
effectors → sensory neurons → brain → motor neurons → sensory receptors
c.
motor neurons → effectors → brain → sensory neurons → interneurons
d.
sensory receptors → sensory neurons → interneurons → motor neurons → effectors
Sensory neurons transmit information towards the central nervous system.
Which of the following is true concerning the movement of peripheral-
information towards the central nervous system?

spinal cord.
B. Axons of the sensory neurons synapse with motor neurons of the muscles
