This property of radioisotopes is useful in food preservation, archaeological dating of artifacts and medical diagnosis and treatment.

  • the je_rking of the knee
  • coughing or sneezing, when irritants enter the nostrils.

Reflex actions do not need to involve the brain, hence they occur very quickly.

The path of a reflex arc begins with a sensory receptor which receives the stimuli, travels to the spinal cord  through a sensory neuron which they initiates a response that is sent through a motor neuron to an effector such effector such as a skeletal muscle.

In conclusion, a reflex arc is the path of a reflex action through the body.

What happens to a muscle cell when there is a shortage of oxygen being supplied to it?
Eva8 [605]
Cellular respiration is the process in which your muscles use oxygen to produce ATP energy. The process is simple. Your body obtains oxygen from the ambient air you breathe. It enters the blood stream and is carried to your muscles, where some of it is used immediately, and the rest is stored by a compound called myoglobin. Whether you’re exercising or not, the oxygen in your body is used to break down glucose and create the fuel for your muscles called ATP.
