Additional formats:
None available
Description:
Comparison of Somatic and Visceral Reflexes. The afferent inputs to somatic and visceral reflexes are essentially the same, whereas the efferent branches are different. Somatic reflexes, for instance, involve a direct connection from the ventral horn of the spinal cord to the skeletal muscle. Visceral reflexes involve a projection from the central neuron to a ganglion, followed by a second projection from the ganglion to the target effector. English labels. From OpenStax book 'Anatomy and Physiology', fig. 15.6.
