If you had no reflexes, your body would not repond. It is one way medical professionals check for brain death. If they take away the oxygen by discontinuing the ventilator, will the patient reflexively breathe?
The ability of an organism to react to stimuli from its environment or habitat is known as adaptation. Without being able to adapt, organisms would be unable to cope in the long term even with the most minor of changes. It would be like trying to bend a metal ruler with you hands.
what astronomical bodies would most likely be the largest?
We would all die because without water, our bodies would dehydrate (i think that how you spell it) and our bodies would shrivle up and explode... :)
I would definitely wash my hands.
We would need to know their names to respond to this question.
I'm not sure I understand the question but reflexes are how our bodies automatically respond to stimuli. If you put your hand on a hot surface, your reflex is to jerk your hand away before you even realize what the problem is on a conscious level. So if you didn't have an automatic reflex, you would keep your hand on the hot surface longer and you would have to make a conscious choice to remove your hand from the area to stop the pain you are experiencing. Without reflexes your eyes wouldn't automatically blink to clear away debris, you wouldn't sneeze in response to irritants, you probably wouldn't even cough if something were caught in your throat and preventing you from breathing unless you made yourself consciously cough. Forget vomiting, if you ate something that was hurting your stomach it would just stay down there and continue to hurt your stomach--vomiting is (generally) an involuntary response a.k.a. a reflex. Without reflexes you would be a terrible driver and you would be very clumsy in general. Reflexes are that unconscious part of you that responds to your environment, often before you become consciously aware of what you NEED to respond to. Reflexes make soccer moms throw their arms over their children's bodies right before they hit the brakes. But, thinking of that, a soccer mom without reflexes probably wouldn't hit the brakes until it was too late and would hit whatever it was her reflexes would have otherwise stopped her from hitting.

They already respond to it. It's just like if you took a hose and sprayed an animal, they wouldn't just stand there and do nothing, they would run away.
If you put light in an animal's eye it will react by shutting it's eyes, covering it's eyes or in any other way it would usually respond.
A plant would respond to light by growing towards a light source through phototropism. It would also respond to touch or contact by curling its leaves to avoid or protect itself from potential harm through thigmotropism.
if you don't have reflexes,you can't move because your body like a rock and a reflexes.
You would find receptors that respond to various stimuli in different parts of the body, such as the skin for touch and temperature receptors, the nose for olfactory receptors, and the tongue for taste receptors. Additionally, there are receptors located in organs and tissues that respond to internal conditions like pressure, pH, and hormones.
For example if a the wolf would detect the scent of a prey this would make the animal respond quickly into tracking the prey down because he will not know when the next oppitunity would come along it would be the difference between life and death for the wolf if he misses the oppitunity
Any organism that has intact nerve cells or a functioning nervous system will respond to stimuli. Organisms respond to changes in temperature, pressure, or chemical composition of its' external or internal environment. A stimulus has to be strong enough to initiate an impulse, called a threshold stimulus.
it swims out of the way, swims to different elevations, communicates with others
Reflexes are automatic, involuntary responses to stimuli that need to be quick and efficient to protect the body from harm. Higher reasoning or conscious thought would slow down these responses and could lead to delays in reacting to potential threats. Reflexes are designed to be hardwired in the nervous system to ensure immediate and instinctive action without the need for complex cognitive processes.
Nervous tissue is specialized to respond to environmental changes. It consists of neurons that can detect stimuli, transmit electrical signals, and coordinate a response to the changes in the environment.
