Answer: a. lateral inhibition in the retina.

Explanation:

Lateral inhibition is a process of increase in sharpness and contrasts in the visual response. This phenomenon is a characteristic feature of mammalian retina. In lateral inhibition, the different cells of the retina in the eye respond to the varying degrees of the light. In this process when one cell in retina activates in the response to light this impairs the activity of the neighboring cell. This causes the edges between the dark and light areas of the object to appear more prominent than would be in the actual sense.

The last structure to respond to a reflex is?(10 Points) motor neuron affector interneuron effector
pishuonlain [190]
Answer: Motor neuron effector

If you accidentally touch hot surface, you automatically pull your hand away from the object and this response is governed by a simple combination of neurons called reflex arcs. The sensory neurons carriers the impulse towards the central nervous system (CNS) then the interneuron carries these impulses within the CNS, while the motor neuron carries impulse away from CNS. Therefore, motor neuron is the last structure to respond to a reflex.
