Humans react to their surroundings using their nervous system.
1. Stimulus - change in surroundings ->
2. Receptors- cells that detect stimuli
2. Nervous system - detects stimuli and coordinates response ->
3. Response - change in organism's behaviour as a result of stimulus
Eye - light
Ear - change in position (balance), sound
Nose - chemicals in air (smell)
Tongue - chemicals in solids and liquids (taste)
Skin (different cells for each stimulus) - touch, pressure, pain, temperature
Light receptor cells have a cytoplasm, cell membrane, and nucleus.
