Question

erception is the process by which environmental energy is detected stimulus or stimu sensory information is organized and interpreted light is focused onto the retina a. b. lus or environmental energy is transformed into neural energy d. The process by which our sensory systems transform environmental or physical energy into neural energy is called a.priming b. sesory adaptation accommodation When you first put on a watch in the morning, you may be aware of pressure on your wrist. However, after a few minutes you may no longer detect the pressure. Which term refers to the process whereby you lose sensitivty to prolonged stimulation? b. subliminal perception c.sensory adaptation d.accommodation With respect to vision, receptors are a. b. located inside the optic nerve located in the iris the rod and cone cells that makeup the retina part of the environment d. Why do we have a blind spot? because the fovea contains only cones because the lens cannot focus on near objects because there are no receptor cells where the optic nerve exits the eye because there are more rods than cones in the retina b. d.

Explanation / Answer

1 ans-sensory input is selected organized and interpreted .

It is the active process of selecting, organizing, and interpreting the information brought to the brain by the sense organs into meaningful objects and events.

2-Transduction-the process of converting physical energy into neural impulses.

3 ans-sensory adaptation-gradual decline in sensitivity to prolonged stimulation

4 ans-rods and cones cell that make up the retina

Rods responsible for the vision at low light level and cones are active at higher level.

5 ans-because there are no receptor cell where the optic nerve exits the eye

part of the retina where optic nerve leaves the eye because it contains no photoreceptor cell.
