The reaction to a stimulus is called a response. An intensified stimulus usually evokes a more intense response. Of course the type of response to a stimulus depends on the nature of the stimulus. Scream at someone and they likely will feel verbally attacked. The screaming is the stimulus, feeling attacked is the response.

What is a stimulus which naturally elicits a response called?
A stimulus which naturally elicits a response is called an unconditioned stimulus. This type of stimulus triggers a reflexive or innate response without prior learning.
Is stimulus a reaction to an internal event?
No, a stimulus is an external event or agent that elicits a response or reaction from an organism. It can be a physical sensation, like temperature or pressure, or a signal from the environment that triggers a response in an organism.
What is the term for the length of time that it takes for you to respond to a stimulus?
The term for the length of time it takes for you to respond to a stimulus is called reaction time. It is the time from when a stimulus is presented to when a response is initiated.
What does Reaction time mean?
Reaction time is the time it takes from a stimulus being received to react to that stimulus. For example, If you step on a bee barefooted (sting of the bee is the stimulus), your reaction time is the time it takes to remove your foot.
What is the action taken by stimulus?
Reaction
A neutral stimulus is defined as one that?
A neutral stimulus is defined as a stimulus that does not naturally elicit a specific response or reaction from an organism. It only becomes effective in producing a response when it is paired with an unconditioned stimulus during classical conditioning.
Why do chemotherapy patients experience taste aversion?
Chemotherapy patients often experience taste aversions to particular foods because they undergo a process of learning called classical conditioning. Classical conditioning occurs when a particular thing that doesn't actually elicit any reaction (called a neutral stimulus) is paired with something that naturally elicits some reaction (called an unconditioned stimulus), and then an association develops between the original stimulus and the reaction (after which the neutral stimulus is then referred to as the conditioned stimulus). The chemicals used in chemotherapy (unconditioned stimulus) are what naturally cause nausea and vomiting; however, sometimes food eaten soon after receiving chemotherapy treatment (neutral stimulus) can be associated with the feeling of illness caused by the chemo, then leading the patient to develop an aversion to that particular food item (now a conditioned stimulus). Typically, classical conditioning requires multiple pairings of the unconditioned and neutral stimulus; however, learned taste aversions can develop after a single pairing, because the body is biologically prepared to develop these.
What is unconditioned stimulus?
An unconditioned stimulus is a stimulus that naturally triggers a response without any prior learning. It's something that prompts an automatic, innate reaction. For example, the smell of food causing salivation.
A organisms reaction to a stimulus?
An organisms reaction to a stimulus is called RESPONSE.
What is stimulus and reaction?
Biologically, anything that gets an organism's attention is a stimulus, and what it does is the reaction.
What is a stimulus which naturally elicits a response called?
A stimulus which naturally elicits a response is called an unconditioned stimulus. This type of stimulus triggers a reflexive or innate response without prior learning.
What is the difference of stumulus and response?
A stimulus is an external or internal event that triggers a reaction in an organism, while a response is the reaction or behavior elicited by the stimulus. In simpler terms, the stimulus is what causes a reaction, and the response is the reaction itself.
Is stimulus a reaction to an internal event?
No, a stimulus is an external event or agent that elicits a response or reaction from an organism. It can be a physical sensation, like temperature or pressure, or a signal from the environment that triggers a response in an organism.
What is the stimulus for taste?
The stimulus for taste is chemical reaction.
Is sunlight a reaction to stimulus?
A response.
What a plant or animal does after receiving a stimulus is an example of a?
What a plant or animal does after receiving a stimulus is an example of a reaction. If the stimulus is unexpected, the reaction is an involuntary one.
What is a single specific reaction to a stimulus?
A response.
