Transduction

Question 1

Transduction

Answer 1

conversion from sensory stimulus energy to neural impulses (action potential)/transforming signals from our environment to neural impulses to our brain.

Question 2

Introduction to Sensation and Perception

Answer 2

Stimulation converts to sensation through sensory transduction; senses share similarities and differences

Question 3

Sensation and Perception

Answer 3

Sensation transmits stimuli; perception organizes and interprets sensory input

Question 4

Hearing Transduction Process

Answer 4

Sound waves undergo transduction into neural impulses at the pinna, then thalamus

Question 5

Sound Transmission in Ear(transduction)

Answer 5

NEURAL IMPULSE Sound waves enter the pinna, then directed through ear canal of about 2.5{cm}with wax, travels through 3 ossicles, wish goes to cochlea (filled with water) the hairs then move then action potential (STIMULOUS) where sodium potassium starts moving (NERVE) then calcium comes in causing a neurotransmitter to travel down the auditory cortex (BRAIN)
99% of the time, those sensations go to our thalamus, which then relays them off to the different parts of our brain which interpret.

Question 6

Sensory Adaptation and Thresholds

Answer 6

Sensory adaptation alters perception thresholds; sound transduction converts waves to neural signals to the brain

Question 7

Inportant

Answer 7

auditory nerve to the thalamus to the primary auditory cortex in the brain
