### Step-by-Step Solution for the Sequence Involved in a Reflex Action: 1. **Stimulus**: The process begins with a stimulus, which is an external factor that triggers a reflex action. For example, touching a hot object. 2. **Receptor Organ**: The stimulus is detected by a receptor organ (such as skin), which senses the change in the environment (like heat from the hot object). 3. **Afferent Nerve**: Once the receptor detects the stimulus, it sends an electrical impulse through an afferent (sensory) nerve towards the central nervous system (CNS). ...
