Interneuron & Reflex Arc

Interneuron

  • Reflex Arc (Figure 14.12)
    • A sensory receptor detects a stimulus, and its axon conducts the information to the central nervous system (CNS).
    • The CNS processes and integrates the information received from the sensory receptor.
    • The CNS sends its output via a motor neuron to an effector, which carries out the response.
  • Peripheral and Autonomic
