Question
Write down the following activities in the correct order for a simple reflex arc:
  1. Impulse travels in the motor fibre.
  2. Impulse travels in the sensory fibre.
  3. Effector organ stimulated.
  4. Impulse crosses the synapse.
✓

Answer

The pathway taken by nerve impulses in a reflex action is called a reflex arc. It is an automatic response to a stimulus. When a stimulus is given to a receptor, the receptors produce an impulse in the sensory fibre. The sensory fibre carries this message in the form of an electrical stimulus across the synapse. From the synapse, the impulse travels in the motor fibre and stimulates the effector organ to produce the desired response. The correct order for a simple reflex arc is:
(b) → (d) → (a) → (c).

When we touch a hot plate unknowingly, then this heat is sensed by a receptor P present in our fingers. The receptor triggers and impulse in neuron Q which transmits the message to an organ R which is a part of the central nervous system. Here the impulse is passed on to a neuron S which in turn passes it to a yet another neuron T. The neuron T passes the impulse to a tissue U in our arm. The tissue U then contracts and pulls our hand away from the hot plate.
