Differentiate between voluntary and reflex action.
Voluntary action | Reflex action |
1.Contains a complex system of sensory neurons and motor neurons for action. | 1.Action is mediated by means of two synapses in whole. |
2.Responses to the stimuli start from the cerebrum of the brain and pass to the effectors. | 2.Responses are brought to the brain from the spinal cord. |
3.A complex system of sensory neurons, relay neurons, motor neurons and effector organs is involved. | 3.It involves the coordinated functioning of the sensory organs, sensory neurons, motor neurons and effector organs. |
4.Multiple synapses are involved. | 4.Action is mediated by means of two synapses in whole. |
