movement isn't necessarily a stimulus. You can sense and detect deviations in your surroundings with at least 5 senses, taste, touch, smell, sight, and sound. You can either detect someone else's motion by seeing them, or you can detect motion around you with touch.

For example, if you are completely submerged in water, you feel the water moving around you. If someone comes near to you, you are able to tell because they swish the water around and that deviates the pressure on your skin. so your skin can feel the motion around it.

What happen to the stimulus that is received by the sense organ?

When a stimulus is received by a sense organ, it gets converted into electrical signals that travel through neurons to the brain. The brain then processes and interprets this information to create a perception of the stimulus, which can then lead to a behavioral response or action.


What is the difference between a stimulus impulse receptor and effector?

A Receptor is referring to a sense organ, like a nerve ending. An Effector is referring to a muscle capable of reflecting to a stimulus. By definition, receptor and effector are antonyms.


What type of organ is in the Lateral line?

It's a sense organ, used to detect movement and vibration in the surrounding water.


Which is the correct pairing of a sense organ with the stimulus to which it responds?

The correct pairing of a sense organ with its stimulus is the eye with light. The eye is equipped to detect visual stimuli, specifically light waves, which allow us to perceive images and colors. Other examples include the ear responding to sound waves and the skin responding to pressure and temperature.

Random movement in response to a stimulus is called?

Random movement in response to a stimulus is called kinesis. Kinesis is a non-directional response where the organism changes its rate of movement in response to a stimulus, but not the direction.


What is the relationship between a physical stimulus and the kinds of sensory responses that result from it?

There are five main senses that people experience: sight, smell, taste, touch, and hearing. Each sense is associated with different physical stimuli. For example, the sense of sight is associated with light waves, the sense of smell is associated with volatile molecules, the sense of taste is associated with dissolved molecules, the sense of touch is associated with pressure or temperature changes, and the sense of hearing is associated with sound waves. The relationship between a physical stimulus and the resulting sensory response is that the physical stimulus is converted into a neural signal by the sense organ, and then this neural signal is interpreted by the brain to produce the sensory response. The specific response depends on which sense is involved and what the physical stimulus is.

What is an effector organ in human biology?

Effector organ is a part of the body that responds to a stimulus and a stimulus is a change in the environment that is detected by a receptor. And is a receptor is a nerve cell that detects a stimulus.
