The document discusses stimuli and responses. It defines a stimulus as something that causes a response and gives an example of a hot pan being a stimulus that causes the response of pulling one's hand away. It explains that external stimuli come from outside the body and lists the parts of the human body that can detect external stimuli, such as the eyes, skin, nose, ears, and tongue. It prompts drawing pictures showing examples of stimuli and responses and labeling whether the stimulus is internal or external.
