1.2 Spinal Reflex - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Contraction of muscles to relax
      - Polysynaptic: slow response
      - ipsilateral
      - Conscious proprioreceptor: cerebrum via nerve impulse from tendon organ receptor
    - - muscle response to pain stimuli
      - Polysynaptic
      - Ipsilateral
      - Intersegmental: occurring between or involving two or more segments.
      - Noxious stimulus (heat & pain) excite sensory nociceptor
    - - Stretching the muscle
      - monosynaptic: fast response
      - Ipsilateral
      - Conscious proprioreception: cerebrum from sensory neuron
      - Prevents injury due overactive muscle
    - - Pain receptor is stimulated increasing frequency of action potentials
      - Polysynaptic
      - Intersegmental: occurring between or involving two or more segments.
      - Contralateral
      - Occurs in weight-bearing limbs to maintain balance
