Nervous system — function?
Transmits signals to coordinate responses.
Auditory pathway — structures?
Outer ear, middle ear, cochlea, auditory nerve.
Reflex arc — purpose?
Enables quick, involuntary responses.
Myotatic reflex — trigger?
Muscle stretch detected by muscle spindles.
Neural circuits — components?
