A
Renshaw cell inhibition
B
Presynaptic inhibition
C
Direct inhibition
D
Indirect inhibition
High-Yield Explanation
Ans. (a) Renshaw cell inhibition(Ref: Ganong, 25th ed/p.122)Renshaw cells are the inhibitory interneurons present in spinal cordRenshaw cells are excited by a motor neuron. In turn, Renshaw cells inhibit the same motor neuron which excites it. This stabilize the firing rate of the motor neuronsAlso called as "negative feedback inhibition"
