Addison Schaefer · Answer 1

A) receptor, sensory neuron, interneuron, motor neuron, effector

Explanation:

In a reflex arc, the receptors present in the skin receive stimulus and generate afferent impulse. The sensory neuron transmits the impulse to the interneuron. Interneuron is present in the spinal cord and activates it. The interneuron then sends back the impulse through the motor neurons to effectors whcih are present in the muscles for the response.
