Illustrate and explain the reflex arc.
Illustrate and explain transmission of neuronal impulses
across synapse.
Use logic to determine whether each of the following reflexes is a somatic reflex or an autonomic (visceral) reflex. Hint: think about what the effector is — is it a skeletal muscle, or is it a smooth / cardiac muscle or gland?
-Patellar (knee-jerk) reflex
-Pupillary light reflex (autonomic/somatic)
-Effectors are skeletal muscles (autonomic/somatic)
-Effectors are smooth muscles or glands (autonomic/somatic)
-Regulation of blood pressure (autonomic/somatic)
-Salivary reflex (autonomic/somatic)
When 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. What other neural connections must be present ?
