4. DETECTING PROCESSING INTERPRETING where TRANSDUCTION happens information travels through neural networks (AFFERENT) information reaches the brain for PERCEPTION

6. processing of perceptual information that starts out with cognitive processing at the higher levels of the brain.

9. SENSORY NEURON SENSORY RECEPTOR CELL BRAIN ENERGY STIMULUS

16. the principle that two stimuli must differ by a constant minimum percentage (rather than a constant amount) to be perceived as different.

24. S clera is the white outer part of the eye that shapes and protects the eye. Iris is the colored part of the eye. Pupil is the opening in the center of the iris. It functions to control the amount of light entering the eye.

25. Cornea is the clear curved membrane just in front of the eye, covering the pupil and iris. It functions to focus light on the retina. Lens is located behind the pupil and iris. It fine-tunes the focus of the image by flexing its curvature (accommodation).

26. Retina is the light-sensitive surface in the back of the eye that houses light receptor cells: the rods and the cones. Note: Transduction takes place when a neural impulse travels through layers of cells in the retina.

59. The surface of the tongue is covered with papillae that contain taste buds. The taste buds respond to four types of tastes: sweet, sour, salty, bitter. Different regions of the tongue are more or less sensitive to the four types of tastes.
