Stimulus refers to any event or object that can provoke a response from an organism. Three examples include: 1) Light, which can influence plant growth and animal behaviors; 2) Sound, which can elicit responses in animals, such as a dog reacting to a whistle; and 3) Chemicals, like pheromones, that can trigger specific behaviors in insects or mammals. Each of these stimuli can lead to various physiological or behavioral responses.
A stimulus is a DETECTECTABLE change in the environment. e.g. light is a stimulus to an animal or plant if it can detect the light with a sensing eye or chemical
stimulus: spilling water on yourself response: jumping up out or your chair in shock
Stimulus?
Stimulus: A loud noise, such as a thunderclap. Response: A person may flinch and cover their ears in reaction to the sudden sound. Stimulus: The sight of a delicious meal. Response: Salivation and an increased appetite, leading to the desire to eat. Stimulus: A friend smiling and waving. Response: A person may smile back and wave in return, signaling acknowledgment and friendliness.
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.

One type of stimulus that does not trigger endocrine glands to release hormones is mechanical stimulation. Examples of major types of stimulus include chemical signals, neural signals, and hormonal signals.
Examples of stimulus reaction in plants include phototropism (response to light), gravitropism (response to gravity), thigmotropism (response to touch), and hydrotropism (response to water). These responses allow plants to adapt to their environment and optimize their growth and survival.
Tropism is the movement of a plant away from or toward a stimulus. The most easily found example of tropism is a plant's response to light. Plants tend to grow toward the light. This tendency is called 'phototropism'.
A neutral stimulus is a stimulus that initially produces no specific response other than focusing attention. Examples of a neutral stimulus is a song, an animal, or a flower. If a person that you love gives you a specific flower, creating a pleasant memory, every time you see or smell this specific flower, it brings pleasant memories of that person.
1. Neutral Stimulus(NS)-A stimulus that does not evoke a response 2.Unconditioned Stimulus(US)-A stimulus innately capable of eliciting a response 3.Conditioned Stimulus(CS)-A stimulus that evokes a response b/c it has been paired with an unconditioned stimulus 4.Unconditioned Response(UR)-An innate reflex response elicited by a US 5.Conditioned Response(CR)-A learned response elicited by a CS
Practically anything can be a stimulus, so organisms can respond to them in just about any way. The definition of 'stimulus' and 'response' are a little paradoxical in this context in that a stimulus is anything that provokes a response and a response is anything done to react to a stimulus. Perhaps some examples will make it clearer: if a predator grasps a lizard's tail (stimulus) it will detach the tail and escape (response). If the weather is excessively hot (stimulus), a plant will close the stomata in its leaves to conserve water (response). If a laboratory mouse notices a new object in its cage (stimulus), it will go investigate it (response).
'Stimulus' is the correct spelling.
The knee jerk and touching something hot or sharp and moving your hand away quickly.
