Verified step by step guidance

Understand the concept of a reflex arc: A reflex arc is the neural pathway that controls a reflex action. It involves several components that work in a specific sequence to produce a quick response to a stimulus.

Identify the components of a reflex arc: The main components include the receptor, sensory neuron, integration center, motor neuron, and effector.

Determine the function of each component: The receptor detects the stimulus, the sensory neuron transmits the signal to the integration center, the integration center processes the information, the motor neuron carries the signal away from the integration center, and the effector produces the response.

Analyze the sequence of events in a reflex arc: The correct sequence starts with the receptor detecting a stimulus, followed by the sensory neuron transmitting the signal to the integration center. The integration center processes the information and sends a signal through the motor neuron to the effector, which then produces the response.

Compare the given options with the correct sequence: Match the sequence of components in each option with the correct sequence of a reflex arc to identify the correct answer.
