A student sets up a terrarium with a lizard on a rock. A heat lamp is positioned above one side (shown by red heat lines), and a cricket is in a small container releasing odor lines (labeled "cricket chemicals") on the other side. These stimuli come from outside the lizard, and organisms detect different types of stimuli. Which stimulus is present in the environment?
