Type of reflex involving only one synapse so there is not integration or "control"
First enlargement of the spinal cord that is the region of crossing over for spinal tracts and includes some autonomic control reflex centers
Part of spinal cord that contains only motor neurons and sends efferent impulses to muscles/glands; their cell bodies are found in the nuclei of spinal cord
Largest part of the brain that interprets sensory input and sends out motor responses; has regions specified for individual functions
System of neurons through the brainstem that help to filter out sensory stimuli
