What is a decreased sensitivity that occurs when a stimulus is continuously applied to sensory receptors called?
It all depends on the sensory receptors affected by continuous stimulus applied. It can cause complete damage to the receptors and or prevent them from receiving the correct signals.
Anything a organism responds to is a?
stimuli? yea that's what i thought but im not so sure...
What can increase a strong stimulus?
threshold stimulus
An organism reacts to a stimulus with an?
An organism reacts to a stimulus with a response.
What is the definition of a submaximal stimulus?
Submaximal Stimulus results in complete contraction of some fibers. It causes contraction more than subminimal stimulus and less than maximal stimulus.
The stimulus for the release of CCK is the presence of what in the duodenum?
Fat
What is the decreased sensitivity to a continued stimulus called?
depends on the subject of the matter; one may adapt to the stimulus, or develop a tolerance if being compaired to drug use
What occurs when a constant unchanging stimulus is no longer noticed?
sensory adaptation
What is the definition of weber's law?
Weber's law states that the just noticeable difference between two stimuli is proportional to the magnitude of the stimuli. In other words, the change in stimulus needed to detect a difference is a constant ratio of the original stimulus level.
What is the stimulus for a platelet plug or blood clot to form?
The stimulus for a platelet formation is bleeding where the body automatically detects if there is a presence of bleeding inside or outside the body.
What is a stimulus error?
A stimulus error refers to a mistake or error that occurs during an experiment due to the way a stimulus is presented to the participants. This can include incorrect timing, intensity, or presentation of the stimulus, which can influence the results of the study. It is important to minimize stimulus errors to ensure the accuracy and validity of the research findings.

A mouse runs for cover in the presence of a cat the cat is an example of stimulus Innate Internal Learned External?
When a mouse runs for cover in the presence of a cat the cat is an example of an external stimulus. Mice have an innate fear of cats, but the cat itself would be an external stimuli.
Just noticeable difference is a constant proportion of the intensity of an initial stimulus is this weber's law?
Yes, that's correct. Weber's law states that the just noticeable difference (JND) between two stimuli is proportional to the intensity of the initial stimulus. This means that the difference needed to perceive a change in stimulus intensity remains constant regardless of the initial intensity level.

What process occurs as specialized receptor cells in the retina respond to only some features movement colors or edges of each stimulus?
sensory reduction
What does form 012-s payment reduction notification mean?
I recieved the same document Form 012-S Payment Reduction Notification Economic Stimulus 2013 from USNPAA. It appears to be a scam otherwise would be listed on the government website.
