Final answer:

The nerve pathway involves heat receptors in the hand, sensory neurons, spinal cord interneurons, motor neurons, and hand muscles for quick withdrawal reflex from a hot object.


Explanation:

The correct pathway of nerve impulses for quickly pulling your hand back when touching a hot object is:

  1. Heat receptors in the hand
  2. Sensory neurons
  3. Spinal cord (interneurons)
  4. Motor neurons
  5. Hand muscles

This pathway allows for a rapid reflexive response to protect the body from harm.
