Answer 1

c. a voluntary response of the skeletal muscles does not describe a reflex

Answer 2

Reflex doesn’t include the voluntary response of the skeletal muscle.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that reflex is an unconscious and involuntary rapid response of human senses in response to a stimuli. Reflexes occur through the reflex arc, the pathways of neuro sensory system. The reflex response to an impulse before it hits the brain.

So, an involuntary response is not considered as a normal reflex. The response of the skeletal muscle is an involuntary one and it doesn’t occur in the normal way in which the reflexes occur.
