The answer is reflex actions.


A reflex action is an involuntary and rapid reaction to a stimulus. So, when a receptor detects a stimulus, the information is sent to relay neuron through a sensory neuron. Relay neuron sends information to the effector through a motor neuron and effector produces a response.
