A reaction is what happens to the body when a stimulus is applied, a response is what happens next; i.e a stimulus illicits a reaction which illicits a respose. For example, glucose in the blood (a stimulus) causes the pancreas to release insulin (a reaction), which in turn causes the cells to take up glucose from the blood (a response).

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

A reaction is automatic and often instinctive, driven by emotions or habits. A response, on the other hand, involves more thought and consideration before taking action. Responses are generally more deliberate and intentional than reactions.
