Assertion: Reflex arc comprises of at least one
afferent neuron, one efferent neuron and a part
of PNS.
Reason: The efferent neuron receives signal
from a sensory organ and transmits the impulse
via a ventral nerve root into the PNS.
afferent neuron, one efferent neuron and a part
of PNS.
Reason: The efferent neuron receives signal
from a sensory organ and transmits the impulse
via a ventral nerve root into the PNS.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
If both Assertion and Reason are false
Option D (If both Assertion and Reason are false) is correct because the reflex arc involves the CNS, not just the PNS, and the efferent neuron transmits impulses via a ventral nerve root, not into the PNS.
