Neurological responses refer to the reactions of the nervous system to various stimuli, such as sensory input or emotional triggers. These responses involve complex processes where neurons communicate through electrical and chemical signals. The brain interprets these signals, leading to actions like reflexes or changes in mood. These responses can be influenced by factors such as genetics, environment, and experience. For example, when touching something hot, sensory neurons send signals to the spinal cord, which quickly triggers a reflex to withdraw the hand. This rapid response helps protect the body from harm.
