The directed movement of a motile cell or organism in response to an external stimulus. The aggregation of coloring matter in a particular location in an organism, tissue or cell, occurring in response to some external stimulus. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of an extracellular stimulus. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a response to an external stimulus. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of a response to an external stimulus. Any process that activates, maintains or increases the rate of a response to an external stimulus. A change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of an external stimulus. The process by which individuals that have the potential to develop any of several possible distinct developmental paths have their individual developmental fates determined in response to environmental cues. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a mechanical stimulus. An action or movement due to the application of a sudden unexpected stimulus. Any process specifically pertinent to the functioning of integrated living units: cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. A process is a collection of molecular events with a defined beginning and end. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of an external stimulus. The movement of an organism, or part of an organism, in response to an external source of stimulus, usually toward or away from it. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of an external biotic stimulus, an external stimulus caused by, or produced by living things. The series of events in which an external stimulus is received by a cell and converted into a molecular signal. The synchronization of a circadian rhythm to environmental time cues such as light. An automatic response to a stimulus beginning with a nerve impulse from a receptor and ending with the action of an effector such as a gland or a muscle. Signaling never reaches a level of consciousness. The movement of a cell or organism in response to a stimulus in which the rate of movement depends on the intensity (rather than the direction) of the stimulus. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus.
