Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gannon's reaction of arching his back and throwing his head, arms, and legs out is typical of the Moro reflex, also known as the startle reflex. This reflex normally disappears around 4-6 months of age. The other reflexes listed (movement, rooting, and sucking) do not involve the same type of sudden, involuntary reaction to a stimulus.
