Answer:

The conscious action takes longer

Step-by-step explanation:

A reflex action follows this general sequence and does not involve the conscious part of the brain, which makes it much quicker. The nerve pathway followed by a reflex action is called a reflex arc . For example, a simple reflex arc happens if we accidentally touch something hot.
