Answer:
The reflex arc follows this sequence of events
1. sensory receptor activation
2. sensory neuron activation
3.information processing
4. motor neuron activation
5. effector response
Explanation:
Reflex arc is the pathway of nerves during a reflex action. An example of a reflex arc is when we accidentally touch a hot object. First, the receptor in the skin detects a stimulus in this case the change in temperature. Second, the sensory neuron transmit the electrical impulses to the Central Nervous System for information processing. Then relay neurons connect sensory neurons to motor neurons. Third, motor neurons sends electrical impulses to an effector wherein the effector produces a response ( muscle contracts to move the hand away from the hot object. This happens in a split of seconds.
Phytoplankton contribute positively in the oceanic ecosystem as they are a source of food for oceanic animals. Moreover, they remove carbondioxide from the carbon cycle and utilize it for the process of photosynthesis.
