Question

Reflex arc consist of

• A. motor nerve
• B. sensory nerve
• C. Both sensory and motor nerve
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C Both sensory and motor nerve

A reflex arc is a neural pathway involved in a reflex. The reflex arc consists of 5 components: 1. sensory receptor 2. sensory neuron 3. integration center 4. motor neuron 5. effector target

In a reflex, sensory information activates a receptor that sends information to the CNS via a sensory neuron, some level of processing occurs in the integration center, and then the response is communicated to the effector target via the motor neurons.
