Knee-jerk reflex (Feed-Forward Inhibition and Feedback Inhibition) | Neurobiology

Pardon me for not mentioning that the circuit we were mainly discussing in this lecture is a divergent one, while in reality, the knee-jerk reflex circuits could be both divergent and convergent, depending on what you're seeking. Divergence allows one sensory signal to activate many motor neurons, amplifying the reflex response, while convergence ensures that only a strong enough stimulus (involving multiple sensory neurons) triggers a response.
