A is a rapid, automatic, and involuntary response to a specific stimulus. These actions are fundamental to survival because they allow the body to react nearly instantaneously to protect itself—such as pulling your hand away from a hot stove—before the brain even processes the sensation of pain. The Reflex Arc RefleX
: Transmits the electrical impulse from the receptor toward the central nervous system (the spinal cord). : Located within the spinal cord (or brainstem),
: Carries the response signal away from the central nervous system to the target organ. RefleX
