If a person accidentally touches a pan filled with hot water on the stove, they will immediately move their hand away from the h
ot pan before yelling out in pain. Define and use the following terms to explain what is involved in this reaction. 1. Neurotransmitters 2. The endocrine system 3. Thalamus 4. Amygdala 5. Sensory cortex 6. Motor neurons
This occurs when the motor neurons deliver nerve impulses from the spinal cord to the part of the body where a response to the stimulus is needed. In the above example, the response is the muscle contraction to quickly pull the hand away from the hot pot pan.
