Abstract
A human specimen can contain a number of involuntary responses (responses not consciously controlled) to outside stimuli; science calls this response a reflex. Some reflexes disappear as e mature into adults, such as suckling, grasp reflex, Moro reflex and several others (Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia, Wikimedia Foundations, Inc. reflex. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/reflex#Significance, Viewed 04/22/07). Other reflexes, such as the knee jerk response stay with us for ever. Doctors use reflexes such as the knee jerk reflex, also called the Patellar reflex, to see if the person's sensory neurons, motor neurons and spinal cord are working properly.
