- Spinal Cord It had been a busy week for Amanda. She had taken three exams, and as if that wasn't stressful enough, her sister was ill and Amanda had to spend much of her time helping out at home. By the end of the week, Amanda decided to go to the beach for a walk and some genuine relaxation. The day was warm and Amanda took off her shoes so she could walk barefoot and feel the sand between her toes. Halfway down the beach, she stepped on something extremely sharp and withdrew her foot in pain. As Amanda hopped around the sand on one foot, rubbing the other to ease the pain, she decided to put her shoes back on. As Amanda stepped on something sharp, she withdrew her foot due to reflexes. Any pain experienced would have been just AFTER she moved her foot off of the sharp object. Why is there a delay in perceiving the pain sensation?arrow_forwardSpinal Cord It had been a busy week for Amanda.
