2.1.1 - Introduction

Converting forms of energies into neural code to be processed by different parts of the brain

Converting forms of energies into physical phenomena, i.e. neural energy into the movement of a limb

The process by which the brain sorts different neural signals as they criss-cross into the forebrain

The process by which the brain sorts different neural signals as they criss-cross into the midbrain
