• Design a procedure to test one of the other reflexes of the body. Hypothesize what the reflex arc might look like for the reflex you test. Suggest a way in which this reflex would help protect the body.
To test the abdominal reflex, follow these steps:
1. Position yourself safely with a partner.
2. Have your partner tap or apply gentle pressure to your stomach, gradually increasing the intensity.
3. Observe your body's response.
Hypothesis: The abdominal reflex involves the contraction of the abdominal muscles and a subconscious attempt to avoid the punches.
Explanation: The abdominal reflex is a protective response triggered by hits or pressure on the stomach. It activates the contraction of the abdominal muscles, providing stability and absorbing force to protect the stomach and ribs from potential damage. The reflex also prompts a subconscious reaction to instinctively avoid the punches, further minimizing direct impact and safeguarding the vital organs in the abdomen.
