Q

What is the difference between superficial and deep reflexes?

A

Superficial: A response to stimulation of receptors within the skin. The signal goes all the way to the brain, then has to descend motor tracts, making it a polysynaptic reflex, e.g. Babinski reflex
Deep: Reflex arc involving the spinal or brainstem segment that innervates the specific muscle.
