Chapter 14, Problem 18DYB
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The five basic steps involved in a reflex arc.
Concept introduction:
Reflex arc includes the transmission of the signals from the spinal cord to the effector organ for the generation of reflex. It is generated in peripheral and central nervous system. The effector organ is a gland which receives the stimulus.
