The scientific name for these changes are stimuli (singular = stimulus), examples of which are touching a hot surface, being scared, exercising and drugs.

What 4 processes must an organism carry out to stay alive?

To stay alive, an organism must carry out four essential processes: metabolism, which involves the chemical reactions that provide energy and build cellular structures; homeostasis, which maintains a stable internal environment despite external changes; growth and development, allowing the organism to mature and reproduce; and response to stimuli, enabling it to react to changes in its environment for survival. These processes work together to support the organism's life functions.
