Can people perceive inappropriate stimuli?
Yes, people can perceive inappropriate stimuli. Inappropriate stimuli can refer to anything that is offensive, disturbing, or inappropriate in a given context. People may perceive inappropriate stimuli through their senses, such as seeing something inappropriate, hearing inappropriate language, or feeling uncomfortable in a certain situation. The perception of inappropriate stimuli can evoke emotional responses and impact one's well-being.
-
What are perceptible and imperceptible stimuli?
Perceptible stimuli are stimuli that can be detected by our senses, such as sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell. These stimuli are easily noticeable and can evoke a response or reaction from an individual. On the other hand, imperceptible stimuli are stimuli that are not easily detected by our senses and may not consciously register in our awareness. These stimuli can still have an impact on our behavior or emotions, even though we may not be consciously aware of them.
-
What are the adequate stimuli for...?
The adequate stimuli for touch receptors are mechanical pressure, vibration, and temperature changes. For taste receptors, the adequate stimuli are chemicals that dissolve in saliva and come into contact with taste buds. For olfactory receptors, the adequate stimuli are volatile chemicals that are inhaled and bind to receptors in the nasal cavity.
-
What are examples of internal stimuli?
Examples of internal stimuli include hunger, thirst, pain, emotions such as fear or happiness, and physiological processes like changes in blood sugar levels or hormone levels. These stimuli originate within the body and can influence behavior and physiological responses. Internal stimuli play a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis and regulating various bodily functions.

Resisting the News : Engaged Audiences, Alternative Media, and Popular Critique of Journalism
Resisting the News brings together unique insights from activists and alternative-media users to offer a distinctive perspective on the problems of journalism today—and how to fix them. Using critical-cultural theory and, in particular, the conceptual frameworks of ritual communication and interpretive communities, this book examines how audiences filter their interpretations of mainstream news through the prisms of their identities and experiences with alternative media and political protest.Jennifer Rauch gives voice to alternative-media audiences and illuminates the cultural resources, values, assumptions, critical skills, and discursive strategies through which they make sense of their news environments.Drawing on a 15-year research project, Rauch employs a variety of qualitative, quantitative, and quasi-ethnographic methods, including focus groups, media-use diaries, close-ended surveys, and open-ended questions, to paint a layered portrait of liberal and conservative critiques of journalism. Shedding new light on popular theories about "how news works" and about "mass" audiences, this book will be useful to students, scholars, and teachers of political communication, journalism studies, media studies, and critical-cultural studies.

What are adequate stimuli for sensory cells?
Adequate stimuli for sensory cells are the specific forms of energy or physical signals that can activate and excite the sensory receptors. For example, the adequate stimulus for photoreceptor cells in the eye is light, while the adequate stimulus for mechanoreceptor cells in the skin is mechanical pressure or vibration. Each type of sensory cell is specialized to respond to a particular type of stimulus, and their activation by the adequate stimulus is essential for the transmission of sensory information to the brain.

What are perceptible and non-perceptible stimuli?
Perceptible stimuli are those that can be detected by our senses, such as sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. These stimuli are tangible and can be directly experienced by an individual. Non-perceptible stimuli, on the other hand, are not directly detectable by our senses and may require the use of specialized tools or instruments for their detection. Examples of non-perceptible stimuli include ultraviolet light, infrared radiation, and certain types of electromagnetic waves.

What are stimuli for societal development problems?
Stimuli for societal development problems can include factors such as inequality, poverty, lack of access to education and healthcare, political instability, environmental degradation, and technological disruption. These issues can hinder the progress and well-being of a society, leading to social, economic, and political challenges. Addressing these stimuli is crucial for fostering sustainable development and creating a more equitable and prosperous society.

What are stimuli for animals and plants?
Stimuli for animals are external factors that trigger a response in their nervous system, such as changes in temperature, light, sound, or the presence of food or predators. Plants, on the other hand, respond to stimuli such as light, gravity, touch, and the presence of certain chemicals in their environment. These stimuli can trigger various physiological and behavioral responses in both animals and plants, allowing them to adapt and survive in their respective environments.
