Answer;

-Sensation

Sensation is the activation of receptors in the various sense organs

Explanation;

-Sensation is the activation of sensory receptor cells at the level of the stimulus. Perception is the central processing of sensory stimuli into a meaningful pattern. Perception is dependent on sensation, but not all sensations are perceived.

-Receptors are the cells or structures that detect sensations. A receptor cell is changed directly by a stimulus. A transmembrane protein receptor is a protein in the cell membrane that mediates a physiological change in a neuron, most often through the opening of ion channels or changes in the cell signaling processes.

What is an example of a stimulus and a response that humans exhibit? Can a similar behavior be seen in any other organisms?
Sedaia [141]
Common examples of this would be if you place your hand in extremely warm or cold water, and an immediate response of pulling out of the water or any fluid, is an example of this extreme response, other responses are what is done in everyday, like being thirsty or hungry etc.

These behaviours are shared by all organisms even the most simple ones.
