Solution

The correct option is A True
Moving the hand back immediately on touching a hot object is an example of reflex action. Reflex actions are always immediate and happen without much of the thinking process. Change in the size of the pupil when light acts on it and withdrawal of hands when pricked by the pin are also examples of reflex action.
