Detailed explanation-1: -Answer: The internal stimuli that cause such a response could be a bacteria or virus. If you consider the other like the chipmunk running and owl sleeping in a tree, those two are responses to predators, which are outside the body.
Detailed explanation-2: -Internal stimuli are factors located inside the body that are detected and cause a response. Examples of internal stimuli are oxygen levels, blood sugar and pH levels, water levels, and internal temperature. If any of these conditions are too high or too low, the body will respond in a way to get back to homeostasis.
Detailed explanation-3: -Example of a stimulus and a response: If you accidentally touch a hot object, you automatically withdraw your hand. The heat of the hot object is the stimulus and you, withdrawing your hand is the response to the stimulus.
