b.) autonomic reflexes
c.) polysynaptic reflexes
d.) monosynaptic reflexes
submit my answer
Monosynaptic reflexes are the simplest type of reflex arc. They consist of only two neurons (a sensory neuron and a motor neuron) with one synapse between them. Somatic reflexes involve skeletal muscles but can be more complex. Autonomic reflexes are related to involuntary functions of internal organs. Polysynaptic reflexes have more than one synapse and multiple neurons involved.
