Q

what is a deep tendon reflex?

A

tap tendon to a muscle results in an afferent impulse to spinal cord which synapses either directly or indirectly (thorugh interneuron) on alpha motor neurons. motor neurons generate an efferent impulse to muscle causing contraction

Q

superficial reflexes?

A

stimulation of receptors in the skin generates an afferent impulse to a level of the spinal cord that results in the stimulation of alpha motor neurons causing contraction of muscles innervated by that same level
