If dangerous or important stimuli happen, escape or fighting reflexes can heighten for several minutes {sensitization, behavior}. Repeated dangerous stimuli make sensitization last days or weeks. Response to other stimuli also increases. Sensitization affects same synapses affected by habituation. Sensitization releases more vesicles by increasing interneuron activity on habituated-reflex sense and motor neurons. Sensitization is not associative.
