The sensory process begins as the ear senses the crack of the bat as it strikes the ball. The information received by the ear is received by the temporal lobe which alerts that an action has taken place which begins the transmission of neural messaging. Next‚ a dendrite at the receiving end of neuron cell will take the initial transmission and carry it forward to the body of the cell. Once the dendrite has received enough information the process will continue by undergoing a nerve impulse sending

5 types of sensory receptors are: chemoreceptor A sense organ‚ or one of its cells (such as those for the sense of taste or smell)‚ that can respond to a chemical stimulus; a chemosensor. mechanoreceptor Any information about mechanical changes in its environment‚ such as movement‚ tension and pressure. photoreceptor A specialized neuron able to detect‚ and react to light nociceptor A sensory receptor that sends signals that cause the perception of pain in response to

Environmental Noise Becca Gillett Thursday December 19th 2013 Noise is a prominent part of our society and causes significant damage to our ears as well as increasing a risk of cardiovascular diseases. The field of environmental noise works to study what devices create the most noise and how we can reduce that noise to therefore reduce the harm done to humans. An increase in the intensity of a noise is the increase in the energy in its sound waves‚ and if this energy gets to a certain point
