Distinguish between monsynaptic and poly synaptic reflexes and between ipsilateral and contralateral reflex responses.
Answer:
Q)
Monosynaptic involves only one synapse in spinal cord gray matter, between afferent and efferent neurons. No interneuron.
Eg : peripheral muscle reflexes such as, knee jerk is monosynaptic reflex.
In monosynaptic reflex only one sensory neuron and one motor neuron is involved.
In polysynaptic reflex one or more interneurons connect affarent sensory and efferent motor neurons. All but most simple reflexes are polysynaptic.
Eg; withdrawal reflex to pain stimuli.
Q)
Ipsilateral vs contralateral reflex response.
In contralateral reflex, sensory and effector neurons are on opposite side.
In ipsilateral reflex both sensory and effector neurons are on same side of the body.
Eg of contralateral reflex is, when a man steps on a needle and pulls his leg, contralateral leg bears weight of whole body.
Example of ipsilateral reflex is, the man pulling off the leg stepped on the nail.
Distinguish between monsynaptic and poly synaptic reflexes and between ipsilateral and contralateral reflex responses.
Define a reflex. Distinguish between somatic vs. autonomic reflexes, and cranial vs. spinal reflexes. Define a reflex arc
Question 29 What are the typical responses of a withdrawal reflex and crossed extensor reflex if someone steps onto a sharp object?

Consider the neuromuscular junction between a pre-synaptic neuron and the diaphragm muscle. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that is released from the presynaptic neuron to induce muscle contraction in the post-synaptic muscle cell. Which of the following would be an effect of tetrodotoxin? A. More acetylcholine in the synapse of the neuromuscular junction with the diaphragm B. Less acetylcholine in the synapse of the neuromuscular junction with the diaphragm

1:15-10 a. Distinguish between proposed, temporary, and final Treasury Regulations. b. Distinguish between interpretative and legisla- tive Treasury Regulations.
Recall the sites (effectors) of alpha1-, beta1-, and beta2-adrenergic receptors and state the expected responses from their activation by a suitable agonist. Explain the difference between direct cardiac (beta1) effects of adrenergic agonists and reflex (baroreceptor reflex–mediated) effects of those same drugs, using norepinephrine, phenylephrine, and isoproterenol as examples. Identify the desired effects when a therapeutic dose of epinephrine is given for anaphylaxis and explain the actions of the drug that earn it the label “drug of choice” for anaphylaxis....
Consider the neuromuscular junction between a pre-synaptic neuron and the muscle around the eye. Which of the following would be an effect of the Botox? A. More acetylcholine in the synapse of the neuromuscular junction B. Less acetylcholine in the synapse of the neuromuscular junction
