Question

question 9
which of the following lists the correct pathway of sensory processing?
a stimulus reception → transduction → transmission → perception
b perception → transduction → transmission → stimulus reception
c stimulus reception → transmission → transduction → perception
d transmission → stimulus reception → perception → transduction

Explanation:

• Stimulus reception: Sensory receptors detect the stimulus.
• Transduction: The stimulus is converted into an electrical signal (e.g., in neurons).
• Transmission: The electrical signal is sent along neurons (e.g., via action potentials).
• Perception: The brain interprets the signal as a sensation.

A. stimulus reception → transduction → transmission → perception
