(b) Receptor, Spinal cord, Effector, Motor neuron, Sensory neuron.
Receptor:
They help in detecting the stimuli and conducting sensory impulses to the central nervous system via the sensory neuron.
Spinal cord:
It is the part of the central nervous system which extends from the base of the brain and controls the reflex below the neck.
Effector:
It is a muscle or a gland that responds to the motor information transmitted from the central nervous system via the motor neuron.
Motor neuron:
It has a short dendrite and long axon and conducts impulses from the central nervous system to an effector.
Sensory neuron:
It has long dendrites and a short axon and conducts impulses to the central nervous system from the sensory receptors.
Hence, the terms in the correct order in a logical sequence of a reflex arc are Receptor, Sensory neuron, Spinal cord, Motor neuron, Effector
