General Organization of the Motor Systems
Reflex arc •Neural “wiring” of reflex•Requires 5 functional components: 1. sensory receptor, 2. sensory neuron, 3. intergrating center (SC or BS), 4. motor neuron, & 5. effector
curve A, in a normal muscle, and curve B, in a muscle whose muscle spindles were denervated
Muscle Spindle Reflex
Golgi Tendon Reflex

Myogram of the flexor reflex showing rapid onset of the reflex, an interval of fatigue, and,
finally, afterdischarge after the input stimulus is over.

but prolonged afterdischarge
