Are the people of Ohio going to receive a stimulus check?
No one will receive a stimulus check. You will only a notice an increase in pay. The average wage earner will see a $13 a week increase.
What is stimulus inhibition?
Stimulus inhibition is a psychological concept where the presence of a strong stimulus reduces the response to a weaker stimulus. This phenomenon often occurs in sensory perception, where the dominant stimulus can overshadow or suppress the detection or reaction to less intense stimuli. It plays a crucial role in attention and sensory processing, allowing organisms to filter out irrelevant information and focus on more significant cues in their environment.
The process in which a stimulus produces a repones that opposes the original stimulus is referred to as?
The process in which a stimulus produces a response that opposes the original stimulus is referred to as negative feedback. This mechanism helps maintain homeostasis in biological systems by counteracting changes and stabilizing internal conditions. For example, if body temperature rises, mechanisms are activated to cool it down, thereby opposing the initial increase.
What is the stimulus habituation?
Stimulus habituation is a psychological process where an organism becomes less responsive to a repeated stimulus over time. Initially, the stimulus may evoke a strong response, but with continued exposure, the response diminishes as the organism learns to ignore it. This phenomenon is crucial for adapting to the environment, allowing individuals to focus on new and more relevant stimuli. It is a fundamental aspect of learning and memory in both humans and animals.
What is an insufficient stimulus described as?
Subthreshold stimulus
What can increase a strong stimulus?
Increasing the intensity or frequency of the stimulus can strengthen its effect. Additionally, increasing the novelty or relevance of the stimulus can also enhance its impact. Finally, pairing the stimulus with a reward or reinforcement can make it more powerful.
Strong stimuli cause the amplitude of action potentials generated to increase?
Yes. ....Up to a point. There is a threshold the stimulus must surpass before creating a CAP (compound action potential). Anything below this threshold is called subthreshold. Once the stimulus is strong enough cause a CAP it is a stimulus threshold. At this point the CAP will continue to increase as the intensity of the stimulus increases (now termed suprathreshold) until a maximal stimulus causes a maximum response. Any stimulus stronger than the maximal stimulus is called a supramaximal and does not result in any larger a CAP than the maximum response caused by the maximal stimulus. source: http://www.unmc.edu/physiology/Mann/mann12.html
Do graded potentials increase amplitude as they move away from the stimulus?
No, graded potentials do not increase in amplitude as they move away from the stimulus. The amplitude of graded potentials will decrease with distance from the stimulus site due to the loss of charge.
Does strong stimuli cause the strength of action potentials to increase?
No, it doesn't become "larger" - the peak potential is always the same - it is a digital signal. Stronger stimulus will cause the nerve cell to fire more often - therefore stimulus strength is translated as action potential frequency.
Many people chew to gum to increase saliva formation when their mouth is dry. what is this type of stimulus?
mechanical stimulus
Will graded potential increase amplitude as they move away from the stimulus point?
No, graded potentials do not increase in amplitude as they move away from the stimulus point. They dissipate as they travel along the neuron membrane due to leak channels and distance from the original stimulus.
When a strong conditioned stimulus is paired with a neutral to become a second conditioned stimulus?
This isn't really a whole question but I'm guessing you're referring to classical conditioning. A good example of this is Pavlov's expeirment with dogs. He looked at how much they salivated when presented with food (the conditioned stimulus) and then paired the food with a ringing bell (neutral stimulus) and eventually the dogs started salivating at the sound of the bell even if there was no food.
What is the strongest stimulus to increase respiratory rate and depth is to increase the blood concentration of?
Carbon dioxide
Are the people of Ohio going to receive a stimulus check?
No one will receive a stimulus check. You will only a notice an increase in pay. The average wage earner will see a $13 a week increase.
What is an exceptionally strong stimulus that can trigger a response?
Relative refractory period
What is the difference between stimulus frequency and stimulus strength?
<P> <P>The stimulus frequency is how often the stimulus is admitted. For example, every 30 seconds, every minute and 1/2, etc. <P>Stimulus strength describes the level of force used to administer the stimulus such as mild, moderate or maximum.</P>
Does a large stimulus produce a higher amplitude in a action poteintial?
No, the amplitude of an action potential is constant and does not vary with the strength of the stimulus. Instead, the frequency of action potentials fired by a neuron can increase with a stronger stimulus.
