Chapter 14, Problem 28CP
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The reflex and type of testing, if you shine a light in a person’s eye.
Concept introduction:
The vestibulocochlear nerves control the movements of the eye through the muscle nerve impulse regulation. The field of the vision and the rotatory movements of the eye are regulated by the motor nuclei in these nerves, when a light is shown in a person’s eye.

What components must be present to qualify?arrow_forwardWhen describing the reflex arcs and the neural pathways involved we often limit ourselves to the nerves carrying information from the muscle or tendon to the spinal cord and back. However, it should be clear from our ability to feel the tendon tap as well as the results from the Jendrassik’s maneuver test that it isn’t this simple.

- Aaron accidentaly touched the hot kettle. Explain what happens using your knowledge of withdrawal reflex.arrow_forwardBackground: A doctor conducted a patellar tendon (aka knee jerk - covered in lecture, assigned reading, and laboratory) reflex test on a patient. To do so, she tested the patient's knee-jerk reflex by hitting the patient's patellar tendon with a rubber hammer. For this patient, the doctor observed that hitting the tendon caused no knee jerk reflex at all, even after many attempts. Normally, a patient will kick her lower leg after the hammer hit on the tendon. However, the doctor could stimulate contraction of the quadriceps leg muscles using a stimulating electrode that applied a voltage across the muscle. 1) During the examination, the patient got nervous. His heart rate increased. Which of the following would increase heart rate? Group of answer choices a)An increase in parasympathetic neural stimulation to the pacemaker node of the heart b)An increase in sympathetic neural stimulation to the pacemaker node of the heart c)An increase in acetylcholine release by motor neurons…arrow_forwardBackground: A doctor conducted a patellar tendon (aka knee jerk - covered in lecture, assigned reading, and laboratory) reflex test on a patient.

The doctor, with further analysis, determined that the receptor membranes of the stretch receptors were operating correctly.To do this, she carefully inserted an electrode into a stretch receptor's membrane, near to the location on the membrane where receptor proteins are located. She measured a change in voltage while hitting the tendon with the hammer. With further testing, the…arrow_forward
