Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The knee-jerk reflex is a spinal reflex that does not require input from the brain. Therefore, even with a severed spinal cord at the neck, Chirag may exhibit this reflex. The other options require some level of communication between the brain and the area of the body in question, which would not be possible with a complete spinal cord severance at the neck.
