What are the steps to nerve regeneration?

1. Axon becomes fragmented at the injury site.


2. Macrophages clean out dead axon distal to the injury.


3. Axon sprouts, or filaments, grow through regeneration tube formed by Schwann cells.


4. Axon regenerates and a new myelin sheath forms.

Somatic vs Visceral reflex arc?

Somatic reflexes activate skeletal muscle.



Autonomic (visceral) reflexes activate visceral effectors (smooth or cardiac muscle or
glands).
