answers: a - e
a effector
b afferent neurons
c receptor
d efferent neurons
e neuroglia

Explanation:

A reflex arc is the neural pathway that controls a reflex. It consists of a receptor (detects stimulus), afferent neurons (transmit signal to CNS), efferent neurons (transmit signal from CNS to effector), and an effector (produces response). Neuroglia (E) are support cells in the nervous system and not part of the reflex arc's basic components.

Answer:

A. Effector, B. Afferent neurons, C. Receptor, D. Efferent neurons
