Compare the reaction times for voluntary vs. involuntary activation of the quadriceps muscle. what might account for the observe
d differences in reaction times? outline what has to occur in the body for each reaction to occur. refer to your drawing from step 23. information from the flow chart you created in activity 2.2.1 might also be helpfu
