Q

Below the level of injury, sensory information cannot come in and travel to the brain, and motor impulses cannot reach target destination.

Spinal reflex does work below the level of injury.

A
  • Above the level of injury, everything works
  • At the level of the injury, nothing works.
    • (no reflex or motor activity)
  • Below the level of injury, sensory information cannot come in and travel to the brain, and motor impulses cannot reach destination.
    • Spinal reflex does work below the level of injury.
