The sensory receptor detects a stimulus. The interneurons receive inputs from sensory receptors and synapse on motor neurons. The effects on motor neurons can be excitatory or inhibitory. Lastly, motor neurons produce muscle contraction, and motor response. Reflexes often have effects in groups of motor neurons to different muscles; sometimes at different joints in the same limb or in a different limb. Reflexes are valuable tools for clinical evaluation of how our nervous system is functioning. For reflex to occur, all elements must be functional and our pathways must be intact. If reflexes are absent, the physician can diagnose where the pathway has been interrupted and can diagnose where function is compromised.…
The reflex arc is the nerve pathway involved in a reflex action including at its simplest a sensory nerve and a motor nerve with a synapse between. The components are receptor, sensory neurons, motor neurons, relay neurons, and effector.…
Reflex circuits harmonize single organs activities, so you don’t have to consciously plan your heart beat and breathing. Reflex circuits are made up of neural circuits, which are the basic building blocks of the nervous system. The neurons transmit signals down axons, and then the signals stimulate the release of neurotransmitters which cross over the synaptic cleft and bind to receptors on organ cells. Chemical neurotransmitters…

The purpose of this lab is focus towards testing our reflexes and sensory physiology. We use these every day but we rarely do understand how much they contribute to our ability to function normally. A reflex is a rapid, involuntary motor response to stimuli. We will be conducting several experiments to test our reflexes throughout this lab.…

There are many aspects on the study and meaning of kinesiology. Some of these ways are; applied kinesiology, kinesiology medicine research, and specialized and energy kinesiology. The study kinesiology and massage therapy is believed to go hand and hand. Many will say that without the proper knowledge of kinesiology and muscle movements, you can not provide a patent with all that is needed for a proper massage. As we approach new years, many individuals are increasing their concern in health. With the healing arts increasing in popularity, individuals don't understand the need for well-rounded therapist. Who are trained in the science of kinesiology, which includes the technique of massage to enable them to be proficient in their field.…
