The Amazing Nervous System: Types of Neurons and Reflex Arcs

The video explains the complex process of how the nervous system responds to stimuli, focusing on the roles of different types of neurons: sensory neurons, motor neurons, and interneurons. It describes how these neurons work together in a reflex arc to produce an automatic response, such as pulling your hand away from a hot object. The reflex arc involves sensory neurons detecting pain, interneurons processing the impulse in the spinal cord, and motor neurons triggering a muscle response.

How do interneurons contribute to the reflex response?

What happens when sensory neurons detect pain?
