Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Spinal cord reflexes are responsible for quick responses to painful stimuli, such as pulling one's hand away from a hot stove. If someone is born without these reflexes, they may require longer exposure to a painful stimulus before reacting to it. This does not necessarily mean they would be incapable of voluntary movements, unable to communicate between their central and peripheral nervous systems or unable to feel extreme changes in temperature.
