reflective teacher. Reflection can be a challenging endeavor. It's not something that's fostered in school-typically someone else tells you how you're doing! Teachers are often so caught up in the meeting the demands of the day, that they rarely have the luxury to muse on how things went.
A reflex arc is a neural pathway that controls a reflex action. In higher animals, most sensory neurons do not pass directly into the brain, but synapse in the spinal cord.his characteristic allows reflex actions to occur relatively quickly by activating spinal motor neurons without the delay of routing signals through the brain, although the brain will receive sensory input while the reflex is carried out.
When a reflex arc consists of only two neurons in an animal (one sensory neuron, and one motor neuron), it is defined as monosynaptic. Monosynaptic refers to the presence of a single chemical synapse.y sending commands to the motor neurons the brain senses and sets a muscles length. The reaction of teh stretch reflex is trying to keep the muscle at the same length by shortening the muscle. The stretch reflex is important for maintaining muscle tone and adjusting it reflexively.
