Solution

The correct option is D Spinal cord
Reflex action is an inborn central nervous system activity, not involving consciousness, in which a particular stimulus, by exciting an afferent nerve, produces a stereotyped, immediate response of muscle or gland. It is an involuntary and nearly instantaneous movement in response to a stimulus.
