उत्तर
i. The reflex pathway comprises at least one afferent neuron (receptor) and one efferent (effector or excitor) neuron appropriately arranged in a series.
ii. The afferent neuron receives a signal from a sensory organ and transmits the impulse via a dorsal nerve root into the CNS (at the level of the spinal cord).
iii. The efferent neuron then carries signals from CNS to the effector. The stimulus and response thus form a reflex arc as shown below in the knee jerk reflex.
