Crossed extensor reflex action prevents one from falling when your foot catches while walking.

Crossed extensor reflex:

  • A withdrawal reflex is the crossed extensor reflex. In the withdrawing limb, the extensors relax while the flexors contract, but in the other limb, the opposite happens.
  • Contralateral means that the crossed extensor reflex takes place on the side of the body that is opposite from the stimulus.
  • Afferent nerve fiber branches travel from the stimulated side of the body to the opposite side of the spinal cord to cause this response.
  • They connect with interneurons there, which then stimulate or inhibit alpha motor neurons to the muscles of the opposing leg.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The tympanic membrane or eardrum serves as a divider between the outer ear and the middle ear structures.

Two other teachers in my daycare center and I have the children play outdoors at the same time. The playground is VERY crowded,
valina [46]
The first thing I would do is try organize a game possibly. A game where each round kids who win said game, get to play with toys on one side of the area, while the other kids get to sing songs, tell jokes, etc. (if they are allowed to do this)

Maybe you could create a song.
This song would remind kids to not touch each other and to not take things out of others hands.

I am unsure of the age group so my answers may not be great depending on the age, but I’m assuming they are toddlers.

Another solution is buying more toys? Although that could get pricey depending on how many kids there are. Maybe you could also have “shifts” where one group of kids goes outside and another goes in. When the group that was outside comes in, you switch. (If that makes sense.)
The kids inside could read, or sing, etc.
