What is an interaction of sensory and motor nerves known as?

  1. Neurotransmission

  2. Synaptic function

  3. Reflex action

  4. Axonal transport

The correct answer is: Reflex action

Reflex action is the correct answer because it refers to the specific process of sensory and motor nerves communicating with each other to produce an automatic response. Option A, neurotransmission, is the general term for the process of nerve cells communicating with each other, but does not specifically refer to the interaction of sensory and motor nerves. Option B, synaptic function, is a broader term that refers to the overall function and communication between nerve cells, but does not specifically pertain to sensory and motor nerve interaction. Option D, axonal transport, refers to the process of molecules or organelles moving along nerve cells, and does not specifically pertain to the interaction of sensory and motor nerves.
