Answers. Best Answer: I would say instinct is a largely inheritable and unalterable tendency of an organism to make a complex and specific response to environmental stimuli without involving reason. And your reflex is an automatic response to a stimulus not involving higher mental centers.
In Infants, there are reflexes called Moro, rooting, and sucking. Many of the reflexes of infants are lost as they grow older. For example, sucking from a nipple for food is different than using a straw. Use of the straw is not response to stimulus, and therefore not a reflex.Reflexes follow a Reflex ARC. The Arc is through the spinal cord. While the information gets sent to the brain (you know you touched something hot, or you are choking and coughing), the reflex totally by-passes the brain.he signal goes up the sensory nerve to the spinal cord and then down a motor nerve to produce the motion. All of the processing of the signal is done in the spinal cord. An autonomic reflex involves different centers in the brain and does not always trigger motion.
