  1. 1We obtain all our experience of the external world through our [blank_start]senses[blank_end]. The development of the brain from birth onwards, particularly in the [blank_start]first years of life[blank_end], depends crucially on the information received from the senses. Extended periods of [blank_start]sensory deprivation[blank_end] can lead to permanent [blank_start]damage[blank_end] of the brain
    1. Asenses
    2. Bsensory deprivation
    3. Cdamage
    4. Dfirst years of life
  2. 2Sensory processing comprises two overlapping stages: first, [blank_start]reception[blank_end] of the sensory stimulus, called ‘[blank_start]sensation[blank_end]’, and second, the [blank_start]construction[blank_end] of a mental [blank_start]representation[blank_end] of the sensory environment, called ‘[blank_start]perception[blank_end]’.
    1. Areception
    2. Bsensation
    3. Cconstruction
    4. Drepresentation
    5. Eperception
  3. 3The mental [blank_start]representation[blank_end] formed from sensory information is referred to as a [blank_start]percept[blank_end], and is the result of a range of processes including context, [blank_start]attention[blank_end] and past [blank_start]experiences[blank_end].
    It is possible to investigate the process of [blank_start]perception[blank_end] using illusory figures, which are able to separate [blank_start]sensation[blank_end] from perception.
    1. Arepresentation
    2. Bpercept
    3. Cattention
    4. Dexperiences
    5. Eperception
    6. Fsensation
  4. 4Our interpretation of the [blank_start]sensory environment[blank_end] requires more than the [blank_start]integration[blank_end] of individual sensory signals. Rather, we make a number of [blank_start]assumptions[blank_end] about our environment, such as what features should remain [blank_start]constant[blank_end], and use a number of different [blank_start]sensory cues[blank_end], for example interposition, to perceive a [blank_start]three-dimensional world[blank_end].
    1. Asensory environment
    2. Bintegration
    3. Cassumptions
    4. Dconstant
    5. Esensory cues
    6. Fthree-dimensional world
  5. 5The processes of [blank_start]sensation[blank_end], perception and motor [blank_start]action[blank_end] allow us to actively engage with our sensory [blank_start]environment[blank_end] and learn about it, so as to inform [blank_start]future[blank_end] actions.
    1. Asensation
    2. Baction
    3. Cenvironment
    4. Dfuture
  6. 6The [blank_start]bodily[blank_end] senses consist of a wide range of different types of [blank_start]receptors[blank_end] providing information about the external [blank_start]sensory[blank_end] world and about the [blank_start]body[blank_end] itself.
    In the case of touch and [blank_start]pain[blank_end], the receptors are located [blank_start]all over[blank_end] the body. By contrast, receptors for [blank_start]proprioception[blank_end] are rather more limited in their locations, being found in joints, [blank_start]muscles[blank_end] and tendons.
    1. Abodily
    2. Breceptors
    3. Csensory
    4. Dbody
    5. Epain
    6. Fall over
    7. Gproprioception
    8. Hmuscles
  7. 7The sense of hearing is a [blank_start]distal[blank_end] sense and involves sound waves stimulating [blank_start]mechanoreceptors[blank_end] found in the ear. The characteristics of the [blank_start]wave[blank_end] relate to the [blank_start]perceptual[blank_end] features of the [blank_start]sound[blank_end], such as the [blank_start]pitch[blank_end] of a musical note.
    1. Adistal
    2. Bproximal
    3. Cmechanoreceptors
    4. Dwave
    5. Eperceptual
    6. Fsound
    7. Gpitch
  8. 8The [blank_start]vestibular[blank_end] system detects [blank_start]proprioceptive[blank_end] information (important for balance) but is often considered separately because it relates entirely to the position of the [blank_start]head[blank_end].
    1. Avestibular
    2. Bproprioceptive
    3. Chead
  9. 9[blank_start]Vision[blank_end] is a [blank_start]distal[blank_end] sense and involves a [blank_start]light wave[blank_end] signal entering the eye and stimulating [blank_start]photoreceptors[blank_end] in the [blank_start]retina[blank_end]. As with hearing, the characteristics of the light wave affect the [blank_start]perceptual[blank_end] characteristics.
    1. AVision
    2. Bdistal
    3. Cproximal
    4. Dlight wave
    5. Ephotoreceptors
    6. Fretina
    7. Gperceptual
  10. 10Smell and taste are often referred to as the [blank_start]chemical[blank_end] senses because they require [blank_start]molecular[blank_end] interactions as a stimulus. They are intimately [blank_start]linked[blank_end] and, when combined, give rise to the perception of [blank_start]flavour[blank_end].
    1. Achemical
    2. Bmolecular
    3. Clinked
    4. Dflavour
