What is the ability to respond to stimulus called?

What types of sensory stimulation are commonly used in therapeutic practices for individuals with sensory processing disorders?
Common types of sensory stimulation used in therapeutic practices for individuals with sensory processing disorders include deep pressure touch, vestibular input (such as swinging or spinning), proprioceptive input (such as heavy work activities), tactile stimulation (such as brushing or massage), and auditory stimulation (such as calming music or white noise). These sensory inputs can help regulate the individual's sensory system and improve their ability to process and respond to sensory information.

What is the ability to respond a stimulus?
To React
What time during which an excitable membrane cannot respond to further stimulation?
The absolute refractory period is the time during which an excitable membrane cannot respond to further stimulation because voltage-gated sodium channels are inactivated. This period ensures that action potentials do not overlap and allows for proper signaling in nerve and muscle cells.
What is the ability to respond to a particular antigen by binding to it called?
