Stimuli can be categorized into several types, including physical, chemical, and biological stimuli. Physical stimuli encompass environmental factors like light, sound, temperature, and pressure. Chemical stimuli involve substances that can trigger a response, such as odors or taste molecules. Biological stimuli often relate to interactions within living organisms, such as pheromones or pathogens that elicit behavioral or physiological responses.
It's just a way of saying that a neuron (or sensory cell) can either (only) respond or not respond (depending on the strength of the stimuli). Which is why your nervous system is said to be pulse modulated rather than amplitude modulated. OR A strong stimuli results in more pulses, not stronger pulses.
Stimulus generalization occurs when a response is triggered by stimuli that are similar to the original conditioned stimulus, while response generalization involves the production of different responses to the same stimulus. For example, if a dog learns to sit when hearing a bell, it may also sit when hearing a similar sound (stimulus generalization). In contrast, if the dog learns to sit and then also learns to lie down in response to the same bell, that would be an example of response generalization. Essentially, stimulus generalization is about the stimuli that evoke a response, while response generalization is about the variety of responses elicited by the same stimulus.
If you place an electrode onto a muscle and the muscle contracts, that is a response to stimuli. An adaptation is the result of the evolution of a species to better suit its habitat. For example a snake is able to produce venom.
A state of impaired consciousness marked by a lack of response is known as being unconscious.
It respond to stimuli, by its own life.
response
A positive response is when a response happens to a stimuli, and this response causes more of the stimuli to happen. A negative response is when a response happens because of a stimuli, and the response stops the continuation of the stimuli.
response?
Yes, sensory receptors do fire action potentials in response to stimuli.

tropism
response to stimuli
A stimulus 'stimulates' you and a response is how you respond. If you are stimulated by hot water your response is to feel hot. If you place your hand on a hot stove the heat will stimulate your skin and your response will be to remove your hand.
This condition is referred to as sensory overload or sensory deprivation, depending on whether there is an excessive amount of stimuli or an absence of stimuli causing the abnormal response.
Negative feedback is the response to changes in stimuli that reverts the change back to the normal stimuli.
Response is to stimuli as reaction is to trigger. A reaction is an action taken in response to a trigger or stimulus, showing a direct cause-and-effect relationship. Just as a response is elicited by a stimulus, a reaction is elicited by a trigger.
