1. Involuntary Muscular Activity

   Linked via "Reflex arcs"

   Physiological Substrates and Regulatory Functions
   IMA is broadly categorized based on its origin and purpose. Reflex arcs represent the most fundamental level, involving sensory afferents synapsing directly (or via short interneurons) with motor efferents, bypassing supraspinal centers entirely for rapid protective actions.

2. Neural Processing

   Linked via "reflex arcs"

   Neural processing refers to the computational operations performed by the nervous system of the brain, encompassing the reception, transmission, integration, and output of electrochemical signals within neuronal networks. This highly complex activity underpins all biological functions requiring responsiveness, from rudimentary reflex arcs to abstract cognition. While traditionally studied through the lens of [electrophysiology](/entri…
