Which of the following is NOT true of reflexes? They are involuntary. The simplest pathway
by which they occur is a reflex arc. They must be integrated in the brain. They allow
individuals to react to a stimulus very quickly.
Solution
Answer: They must be intergrated in the brain.
Explanation:
A reflex is an involuntary and nearly instantaneous movement in response to a stimulus.
Scientific use of the term "reflex" refers to a behavior that is mediated via the reflex arc. A
reflex arc is a neural pathway that controls a reflex action. In higher animals, most sensory
neurons do not pass directly into the brain, but synapse in the spinal cord. This characteristic
allows reflex actions to occur relatively quickly by activating spinal motor neurons without the
delay of routing signals through the brain, although the brain will receive sensory input while the
reflex is carried out. Analysis of the signal takes place after action has been taken.
