⚡ The Reflex Arc — Tap to Explore

Painted reflex arc illustration: young person seated in profile touching a hot candle with extended index finger, brain visible in the head, spine running down the back, blue sensory neurone (afferent) and red motor neurone (efferent) painted inside the arm. Bottom parchment notes the reflex bypasses the brain. Tap any hotspot (receptor, sensory neurone, spinal cord, motor neurone, muscle) to explore that part of the arc — the spinal cord hotspot opens a detailed cross-section zoom showing the butterfly grey matter, relay neurone, and dorsal/ventral roots.
