REFLEX ACTIONS
REFLEX ACTION –
 Reflex arcs

Types of Reflexes
 Monosynaptic reflex –
 Example:
 Quadriceps muscle stretches when tendon is tapped  muscle spindles send an impulse that the
muscle is stretching  spinal cord  motor neuron carries and impulse back to the quadriceps 
quadriceps muscle contracts
 Polysynaptic reflex –
 Example:
 Pain receptors  spinal cord  association neuron  integration  motor neurons to flexor muscles
for contraction  flexors contract  extensors extend (called the crossed extensor reflex to keep the
body balanced)
