Steps of Sensation

The process in living organisms that involves receiving a stimulus, processing information, transmitting the signal, and responding.

Animal Sensation

The structural components involved in sensation in animals, including sensory organs, the nervous system, and the responding organs.

Plant Sensation Mechanism

A response to a stimulus in plants, mediated through tropic and nastic movements.

Plant Tropism

The movement or growth of a plant in response to a directional stimulus.

Study Notes

  • These notes cover key concepts from the ôn tập kiểm tra
  • They focus on plant responses and their mechanisms

Plant Responses

  • Plant responses are achieved through mechanisms like tropism and nastic movements
  • Tropism involves growth towards or away from a stimulus
  • Nastic movements are stimulus-induced, non-directional movements

Steps of Response

  • The steps by which a response occurs are:
    • Reception of stimulus
    • Information processing
    • Signal transduction
    • Response to the stimulus

Components of Response (Animals)

  • The components involved in response in animals are:
    • Sensory receptors
    • Nervous system
    • Effectors

Tropism Types

  • Positive phototropism is growth towards light
  • Geotropism is growth in response to gravity
  • Hydrotropism is growth toward water
  • Thigmotropism is growth in response to touch

Nastic Movement Examples

  • Drooping leaves in Mimosa pudica shows nastic movement
  • Orientation relative to water is an example of nastic movement

Stimuli for Plant Response

  • Stimuli that cause responses in plants include:
    • Light
    • Temperature
    • Water
    • Chemicals
    • Touch
    • Gravity

Speed of Response

  • Plant responses are slow and hard to notice

Nastic Movements

  • Nastic movements happen due to:
    • Change in illumination
