Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The reflex shown in this figure is called a 3-neuron reflex because it requires three types of neurons: a sensory, an interneuron, and a motor neuron. It is also called a withdrawal reflex because it is commonly involved in withdrawing from painful stimuli.
Detailed explanation-2: -Due to touching the plate, an impulse is registered from our sensory organs to our Sensory Neurons. From there, the impulse travels to the Central Nervous System (Spinal Cord), where the appropriate action takes place. After that, the impulse is transferred back to the muscle, using the motor neuron.
