Assertion: Reflex action is an automatic and rapid response to a stimulus.
Reason: Reflex action does not involve the conscious part of the brain.
Assertion and reason are both true, and reason is an accurate account of assertion.
Both assertion and reason are accurate, but reason does not adequately explain assertion.
The assertion is correct, but the reasoning is incorrect.
Both the assertion and reason are incorrect.
This assertion and reason statement is true. Reflex actions are involuntary and do not involve the conscious part of the brain. They are quick responses to a stimulus that help protect the body from harm. The reflex arc, which is responsible for reflex actions, involves a sensory neuron, an interneuron, and a motor neuron. The sensory neuron detects the stimulus and sends a signal to the spinal cord. The interneuron then processes the signal and sends a response to the motor neuron, which activates the appropriate muscle or gland to produce the reflex action.
Option 1 is the correct answer.
