Fire itself does not have a stimulus in the way living organisms do, as it is a chemical reaction rather than a biological entity. It occurs when a combustible material reacts with oxygen at a sufficient temperature, generating heat and light. The stimulus for fire can be considered the heat source that initiates combustion, such as a spark or flame. Once ignited, fire can sustain itself as long as it has fuel and oxygen.

Changing physical stimulus to neural stimulus?

A physical stimulus is transformed into a neural stimulus when the sensation is received by the sensory nerves. For example, the pain of right cross punch is felt when the nerves at the impact site fire.


What stimulus below this intensity will result in no response in a neuron?

Any stimulus below the neuron's threshold potential will not result in a response, as it is not strong enough to generate an action potential. Neurons require a minimum level of stimulus intensity to reach the threshold potential and fire an action potential.


where do I go to find feneral stimulus money to build a fire station?

$210 million dollars have been designated to the building of fire stations. You should contact your local government to obtain assistance in accessing the stimulus funds. Also, www.fireengineering.com has good information on the topic.


What principle states that the properties of the action potential are independent of the relative strength of the depolarizing stimulus?

The all-or-none principle states that the properties of an action potential, such as amplitude and duration, are independent of the intensity of the stimulus that triggers it. This means that once a threshold stimulus is reached, the action potential will fire at maximal strength regardless of the strength of the initial stimulus.


How do you spell stimulus?

'Stimulus' is the correct spelling.


When a neuron receives a stimulus that is very strong?

When a neuron receives a very strong stimulus, it may reach its threshold potential and fire an action potential. This can lead to the release of neurotransmitters, sending a signal to other neurons. The strength of the stimulus can affect the frequency of action potentials generated by the neuron.


Out of the four types of neural circuits diverging converging reverberating and parallel after-discharge which is likely to fire the longest after a stimulus ceases?

Reverberating.


What is the different between an external stimulus and an internal stimulus?

The difference between an external stimulus and an internal stimulus is that an external stimulus is a stimulus that comes from outside an organism. But an internal stumulus is a stimulus that comes from inside an organism. An example for an external stimulus can be that when you are cold, you put on a jacket. An example for an internal stimulus is that when you feel hungry, you eat food.


What are the four characteristics of a stimulus in stimulus coding?

The characteristics are modality (type of stimulus), intensity (strength of stimulus), duration (length of stimulus), and location (where the stimulus occurred).


What do you call the tendency to respond to a stimulus that is similar but not identical to a conditioned stimulus?

Generalization is the tendency to respond to a stimulus that is similar but not identical to a conditioned stimulus.


How does a neutral stimulus become a conditioned stimulus?

A neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus through a process called classical conditioning. This happens when the neutral stimulus is paired consistently with an unconditioned stimulus that naturally elicits a response. Over time, the neutral stimulus begins to evoke the same response as the unconditioned stimulus, becoming a conditioned stimulus.


What is neutral stimulus?

A neutral stimulus is a stimulus that initially does not elicit a specific response. In classical conditioning, the neutral stimulus becomes associated with a meaningful stimulus through repeated pairing, eventually causing the neutral stimulus to elicit the same response as the meaningful stimulus.
