Reciprocal inhibition - the answer is so clear, it's almost as if my brain is being inhibited from thinking of anything else! Guess I've got this one in the bag.

Neurofibromatosis? What, is this exam asking about tumors now? I'm pretty sure that's not the right answer. I'm going with reciprocal inhibition, just to be safe.

Let's go with reciprocal inhibition then. It makes the most sense.

Neurofibromatosis definitely doesn't sound right for this question.

Yeah, I agree. It's all about triggering the CNS to relax the agonist.

Action potentials? Really? I think that's just the basic way nerve signals are transmitted, not a specific phenomenon like this. Gotta be B, reciprocal inhibition.

Neurofibromatosis and contralateral flexion don't really fit the description. Reciprocal inhibition is the best choice.

Reciprocal inhibition is when the antagonist contracts to relax the agonist. It's a neural phenomenon.

I agree, it's definitely not action potentials. Reciprocal inhibition makes more sense.

Hmm, this one's tricky. I was thinking it might be contralateral flexion, but I'm not 100% sure. Maybe I should have paid more attention in my neuroscience lectures.

I'm pretty sure it's reciprocal inhibition. We learned about this in my anatomy class - the agonist relaxes when the antagonist contracts to allow smooth, coordinated movement.
