Induction Reciprocal

Reciprocal induction is a phenomenon in which a change in the state of one organ or organ system leads to a change in the state of other organs or organ systems. This phenomenon was discovered in the 19th century by the Russian physiologist I.P. Pavlov.

Mutual induction occurs as a result of a sequential change in the processes of excitation and inhibition in adjacent nerve centers, which are interconnected through reflex arcs. For example, if a person has pain in their leg, this can lead to a change in muscle tone, which in turn can cause a change in breathing.

In addition, reciprocal induction can occur between different organs and organ systems, such as the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. For example, a change in heart rate can lead to a change in breathing, and a change in breathing can lead to a change in heart rate.

Thus, mutual induction plays an important role in the regulation of body functions and allows it to adapt to changing environmental conditions.



Induction is the mechanism by which impulses transmitted along nerve fibers from one neuron to another cause changes in the excitability (electrical sensitivity) of these neurons. During induction, the excitability of the nerve fiber changes only when it reaches a critical potential. Hence,
