  2. Reflex arc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflex_arc

    Reflex arc demonstrated. When a reflex arc in an animal consists of only one sensory neuron and one motor neuron, it is defined as monosynaptic, referring to the presence of a single chemical synapse. In the case of peripheral muscle reflexes (patellar reflex, achilles reflex), brief stimulation to the muscle spindle results in contraction of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi_tendon_reflex

    This reflex is also called the inverse myotatic reflex, [4] because it is the inverse of the stretch reflex. GTOs' inhibitory effects come from their reflex arcs: the Ib sensory fibers that are sent through the dorsal root into the spinal cord to synapse on Ib inhibitory interneurons that in turn terminate directly on the motor neurons that ...

  4. Somatic nervous system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somatic_nervous_system

    A reflex arc is a neural circuit that creates a more or less automatic link between a sensory input and a specific motor output. Reflex circuits vary in complexity—the simplest spinal reflexes are mediated by a two-element chain, of which in the human body there is only one, also called a monosynaptic reflex (there is only one synapse between ...

  5. Patellar reflex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patellar_reflex

    This is a reflex of proprioception which helps maintain posture and balance, allowing to keep one's balance with little effort or conscious thought. The patellar reflex is a clinical and classic example of the monosynaptic reflex arc. [3] There is no interneuron in the pathway leading to contraction of the quadriceps muscle.

    Hanger reflex - reflex of unclear purpose that causes the head to rotate to the right when the top sides of the head are under pressure, named because it can be easily activated with a coat hanger; Hering–Breuer reflex — is a reflex triggered to prevent over-inflation of the lung

  7. Hoffmann's reflex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoffmann's_reflex

    Hoffmann's reflex is a deep tendon reflex (spindle fibre) with a monosynaptic reflex pathway in Rexed lamina IX of the spinal cord, normally fully inhibited by descending input. On the other hand, the plantar reflex is more complicated and not a deep tendon reflex, and its pathway is both more complicated and not fully understood. [8]

  9. Biceps reflex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps_reflex

    Biceps reflex is a deep tendon reflex (DTR) test (also known as a muscle-stretch reflex test) [1] that examines the function of the C5 reflex arc and the C6 reflex arc. [2] The test is performed by using a tendon hammer to quickly depress the biceps brachii tendon [ 3 ] as it passes through the cubital fossa .
