What is the difference between a reflex action and walking?

Answer

Reflex action is an automatic or quick or immediate involuntary action in the body brought about by a stimulus. This occurs in an urgent or dangerous situation. Spinal cord is involved in reflex actions. Walking is a voluntary action in which thinking and decision making is involved. It is primarily coordinated by cerebrum.
