When a stimulus is continuous but you no longer respond to it the process is called?
Sensory adaptation (also called neural adaptation) is the process by which the nervous system 'adapts' to a continuous stimulus. Sensory (nervous) impulses are sent at gradually decreasing rates until we no longer feel the stimulus, although it is still there. This is why we sometimes forget that our glasses are on our foreheads or that we still have a pencil tucked behind our ear. The only sense that does NOT undergo sensory adaptation is obviously pain, because pain is so critical for survival that ignoring it can lead to serious injury or death.
What else can I help you with?
What is the ability to respond to stimulus called?
The ability to respond to a stimulus is called irritability or responsiveness. It refers to an organism's ability to detect and react to changes in its environment.
What Many living organisms respond to things in the environment called .?
Stimulus.
What is the term for the length of time that it takes for you to respond to a stimulus?
The term for the length of time it takes for you to respond to a stimulus is called reaction time. It is the time from when a stimulus is presented to when a response is initiated.
The process in which an animal stops responding to a repetitive stimulus is called?
The process in which an animal stops responding to a repeated stimulus is called habituation. Broadly defined, stimulus results in a reaction.
The process of changing physical stimulus to neural stimulus is called what?
The process of changing physical stimulus to neural stimulus is called transduction. This process involves converting sensory information from the environment into electrical signals that can be interpreted by the brain.
Is it even possible to become classically conditioned by simply watching someone else respond to a stimulus in a process called?
Yes, it is possible to become classically conditioned by watching someone else respond to a stimulus in a process known as observational learning. This type of learning involves observing others' behaviors and the consequences of those behaviors, which can influence our own responses to similar stimuli.
In classical conditioning what is the process called in which the animal develops an association between the unconditioned stimulus and the neutral stimulus?
The process is called "acquisition" in classical conditioning. During acquisition, the neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus that elicits a response similar to the unconditioned stimulus.
What life process by which organisms respond to changes in the environment is?
The life process by which organisms respond to changes in the environment is called "stimulus response." Organisms sense changes in their environment through stimuli and react in ways that help them survive and thrive. This process is essential for adaptation and survival in different environments.
What is the ability of a muscle to respond to nerve stimulus called?
neuromuscular efficiency neuromuscular efficiency
In classical conditioning what is the process called in which the animal develops an association the unconditioned stimulus and the neutral stimulus?
acquisition
When a neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus has occurred?
When a neutral stimulus acquires the ability to elicit a response by being repeatedly paired with an unconditioned stimulus, it becomes a conditioned stimulus through a process called classical conditioning. This process involves the neutral stimulus eventually triggering the same response as the unconditioned stimulus.
Anything a organism responds to is a?
stimuli? yea that's what i thought but im not so sure...
