Examples Of Spinal Reflexes

Spinal Reflexes are actions that are done unconsciously in response to nerve impulses; these nerve impulses send a message to the spinal cord which then tells your body to react, resulting in spinal reflexes. An example of a spinal reflex is when you stub your toe; you instinctively pull the stubbed toe away from whatever it hit and you end up on one foot, putting your weight on the leg of the foot that wasn’t hurt.
