A cat
Every answer to every question, including the one I am now typing, is a response.
n biology, an automatic and inborn response to a stimulus that involves a nerve impulse passing from a sensory nerve cell to a muscle or gland without reaching the level of consciousness. Simple reflexes include sucking, swallowing, blinking, scratching, and the knee jerk. Most reflexes consist of complex patterns of many unconsciously coordinated muscular actions that form the basis of much instinctive behavior in animals. Examples include walking, standing, the cat's righting reflex, and basic sexual acts.
It's just a way of saying that a neuron (or sensory cell) can either (only) respond or not respond (depending on the strength of the stimuli). Which is why your nervous system is said to be pulse modulated rather than amplitude modulated. OR A strong stimuli results in more pulses, not stronger pulses.
when we touch a hot object we immediately (even without thinking) withdraw our hand. touching the hot object is the stimulus and withdrawing our hand is the response
The stimulus is what triggers the reflex response.
Sensory function: Detecting and responding to stimuli from the environment. Example: Feeling the warmth of the sun on your skin. Integration function: Processing and interpreting sensory information. Example: Deciding to pull your hand away from something hot. Motor function: Initiating a response to the sensory input. Example: Moving your hand away from the hot object.
reflex
Autonomous means uncontrollable. Sensory relates to the sensations felt. Meridians are the sensitive points on our bodies Response is the reaction. The effects of ASMR are uncontrollable sensory responses that affect one or two of our meridians.
reflex
Yes, ASMR does stand for autonomous sensory meridian response. It is the effect of brain tingling triggered by certain visual and sound stimuli.
The characteristics of autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR) differ by individual. The main characteristics are head tingling, relaxation, calmness, sleepiness, happiness and "headgasms".
Sensation is the immediate response of our sensory receptors to basic stimuli, like touch, taste, and sound. Perception involves interpreting and giving meaning to those sensory stimuli, such as recognizing that a touch is soft or loud noise is a car horn.
Sensory adaptation refers to the decreased response of sensory receptors to a constant stimulus, leading to reduced perception of that stimulus over time. Negative adaptation, on the other hand, involves a decrease in the overall response of a system to a stimulus due to prolonged exposure. While sensory adaptation is specific to sensory receptors, negative adaptation is a more general phenomenon that can occur across various systems in response to prolonged stimulation.
A Venus flytrap closes its trap when prey touches its sensory hairs, demonstrating a form of movement in response to stimuli.
An ipsilateral reflex arc refers to a neural pathway where sensory input and motor output occur on the same side of the body. For example, in a knee-jerk reflex, the sensory neuron detects a stimulus and the motor neuron causes a response, both on the same side.
This condition is referred to as sensory overload or sensory deprivation, depending on whether there is an excessive amount of stimuli or an absence of stimuli causing the abnormal response.
