Question

there are five steps in the typical reflex arc. which of the following best describes the activity of the third step?
information processing within the cns
activation of a sensory neuron
response of a peripheral effector organ
stimulation of a receptor
activation of a motor neuron

Explanation:

A typical reflex arc has five steps:

1. Stimulation of a receptor (detects the stimulus).
2. Activation of a sensory neuron (transmits signal to CNS).
3. Information processing within the CNS (integration center).
4. Activation of a motor neuron (transmits signal from CNS to effector).
5. Response of a peripheral effector organ (produces the response).

Answer:

information processing within the CNS
