A woodlouse quickly moves away from bright light toward a dark, damp corner. Which life process is the woodlouse showing?
Answer Details
Sensitivity is the ability to detect and respond to a change in the internal or external environment. Here the woodlouse detects the stimulus of bright light and responds by moving to a dark, damp place, which is exactly this life process. Although the woodlouse does also move, the reason it moves is that it has sensed the change, so the process being shown is its response to the stimulus. This is not nutrition, which is the taking in of materials for energy, growth and development, and no feeding is happening here.
