2.79 understand that a coordinated response requires a stimulus, a receptor and an effector

To be able to carry out a response several things are needed:
A stimulus- a change in the internal or external environment- is needed to prevoke a response.
A receptor is needed to detect a stimulus, so that it can send messages to a coordinator to coordinate a response,
An effector is needed to carry out the response to the stimulus.
