NEET PG DENTAL EXAM

Detailed explanation-1: -Spinal reflexes are rapid, involuntary, and predictable responses to specific stimuli that are mediated by the spinal cord without requiring input from the brain. They occur as automatic, involuntary responses to stimuli generated within the nervous system.

Detailed explanation-2: -The spinal cord transmits nerve impulses to and from the brain and mediates several important reflexes. It also coordinates more complex motor sequences (e.g. those required for walking).

Detailed explanation-3: -Many reflexes start at the muscle or skin and go to the spinal cord. When the action potential reaches the nerve ending, the signal is transferred to another neuron, such as an interneuron or motor neuron. The action potential then travels outside the spinal cord to a muscle.
