Reflex
An automatic response.
The short pathway that carries the impulse for an automatic response is called a reflex arc. It involves sensory neurons, interneurons in the spinal cord, and motor neurons to quickly produce a reflex action in response to a stimulus, bypassing the brain.

No, a receptor is not a muscle's automatic response; rather, it is a specialized structure that detects specific stimuli in the environment, such as light, sound, or touch. When receptors are activated, they send signals to the nervous system, which can then initiate an automatic response, such as a muscle contraction. This process involves multiple steps, including sensory input, processing in the brain or spinal cord, and motor output.
The term for an automatic involuntary response to change is "reflex." Reflexes are controlled by the nervous system and occur rapidly and without conscious thought to help protect the body and maintain homeostasis.

Classical Conditioning?
An automatic response to an environment is known as a reflex. This is a quick, involuntary reaction to a stimulus that helps protect the body from harm. Reflexes are controlled by the spinal cord and do not require conscious thought.
An involuntary and automatic response to a dangerous stimulus is known as the fight-or-flight response. It is a physiological reaction that prepares the body to either confront the threat or flee from it in order to ensure survival.
An automatic response.
The automatic response you are referring to is known as the fight-or-flight response. It is a physiological reaction that occurs in response to a perceived threat, leading to increased heart rate, rapid breathing, and heightened awareness to prepare the body to either fight the threat or flee from it. This response is controlled by the sympathetic nervous system.
An event or object that is followed by an unlearned or innate response is known as a stimulus. In behavioral psychology, this can refer to a stimulus that elicits a natural reaction without prior conditioning, such as a loud noise provoking a startle reflex. Examples include a bright light causing squinting or a sudden drop in temperature leading to shivering. These responses are typically automatic and do not require prior learning.

The type of conditioning where the response is voluntary and purposeful is known as operant conditioning, as it involves learning through consequences for voluntary behaviors. In contrast, classical conditioning involves learning through associations between stimuli and automatic responses.
