<span>The hypothalamus is known as the master switchboard because it's the part of the brain that controls the endocrine system.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer/ explanation :

Reflex response is an involuntary, automatic and rapid response to a stimulus.

It's is controlled by the brain stem.

Reflex actions cannot be controlled. They are coordinated by nerves which moves to and fro in the spinal cord without a direct involvement of the brain.

Examples of a reflex response

Sneezing, coughing, yawning, toughing a hot object, blinking of the eyes.

There are two types of reflex response

Autonomic reflex arc

The somatic reflex arc

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

b. axons  

Explanation:

The Peripheral Nervous System consists of nerves and ganglia. Nerves are nothing more than bundles of parallelly arranged nerve fibers surrounded by connective tissue. Each of these fibers is formed by an axon and the sheaths surrounding it. The ganglia, in turn, are accumulations of neurons, which usually form spherical structures, are located outside the central nervous system and are also linked by axons bridges.
