adaptive reflexes
An inborn response or ability refers to a natural, instinctive behavior or skill that an organism possesses from birth, without the need for learning or experience. These responses are often genetically programmed and can include reflexes, such as a newborn's grasping reflex, or innate skills, such as certain animals' ability to navigate their environment. Inborn abilities are crucial for survival and adaptation, allowing organisms to respond quickly to stimuli in their surroundings.
