When a reflex arc consists of only two neurons, one sensory neuron, and one motor neuron, it is defined as monosynaptic. ... By contrast, in polysynaptic reflex arcs, one or more interneurons connect afferent (sensory) and efferent (motor) signals.
How does a Polysynaptic reflex work?
Contrary to monosynaptic reflexes, polysynaptic reflexes are accomplished with the participation of one or more interneurons, meaning that the communication between the afferent and efferent neurons is indirect. ... Typically, these reflexes cause some muscle groups to contract, while others simultaneously relax.
What are the parts of a Polysynaptic reflex arc?
- sensory receptor.
- sensory neuron.
- integration center.
- motor neuron.
- effector target.
