1. Sensory receptor detects the stimulus

2. Sensory neurons bring the stimulus to the CNS

3. CNS processes and integrates the information

4. CNS sends output via motor neurons to an effector

5. The muscle contracts

Explanation:

Reflex arc is the neuronal pathway by which a reflex is produced from a stimulus. The sensory receptors detect the stimulus and send the signal to brain through sensory neurons. The central nervous system integrate the information and send response through motor neuron which produce the physiological effect.

Example; The thermal receptors detect high temperature and send signal to CNS through sensory neurons. The CNS integrate the information and send signal to corresponding muscles such as blood vessels to dilate and sweat gland to activate through motor neurons.
