There are many observable response to stimuli. For example, if you blow in someone's face, they will likely close their eyes. If you hit someone's knee with a small rubber mallet, the leg will jump.

How are stimulus and response related?

our senses will detect stimulus and send impulse into the integrating centre(brain) to interpret. the brain will produce appropriate response toward the stimulus to the effector. e.g when Telephone ring, the ears will detect the stimulus(sound) and the brain will produce the response to pick up the phone (copy from Yahoo answers)

An animal is an immediate automatic response to an external stimulus?

An animal's immediate automatic response to an external stimulus will vary depending on the circumstance. When the external environment is stimulated there is a response that is triggered.


How are a stimulus and a response related?

They are directly related. Homeostasis is an environments ability to maintain stbility in a regular cycle, but when something new is introduced, the environment is able to respond to a new occurance, or stimulus, and responds in order to survive and return to maintaining a normal cycle. Without response to a new stimulus, environments would be unable to maintain homeostasis and would die out!


In a conditioning experiment what behavioral state is reached when the stimulus no longer evokes a response?

Extinction is the behavioral state reached when the stimulus no longer elicits a response due to repeated presentation without reinforcement. It involves the weakening and eventual disappearance of the conditioned response learned during the conditioning process.

What is any observable response to a stimulus?

In the topic area of shopping, stimulus most likely refers to economic and socioeconomic stimulus. Observable refers to if there is a noticable change (due to socioeconomic stimulus). An example of an observable response would be if corporate management of a company were to add a new branch of such a company or its product line. On the other hand, if a company discontinued a branch or product line then one could observe the response to the lack of stimulus.

Any stimulus that when presented after a response strengthens the response is called a(n)?

Any stimulus that, when presented after a response, strengthens that response is called a reinforcer. Reinforcers can be positive, such as rewards or praise, which increase the likelihood of the behavior being repeated, or negative, where the removal of an unpleasant stimulus also strengthens the behavior.


What is the difference stimulus and response?

What is a naturally occurring reaction to a particular stimulus?

The reaction to a stimulus is called a response. An intensified stimulus usually evokes a more intense response. Of course the type of response to a stimulus depends on the nature of the stimulus. Scream at someone and they likely will feel verbally attacked. The screaming is the stimulus, feeling attacked is the response.
