Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The reflex pathway comprises at least one afferent neuron (receptor) and one efferent (efferent or excitor) neuron appropriately arranged in a series.
The afferent neuron receives signal from a sensory organ and transmit the impulse via a dorsal nerve root into the CNS (at the level of spinal cord).
The efferent neuron then carries signals from CNS to the effector.
The stimulus and response thus form a reflex are.
