Explain the conversion of sensory information into Neural impulses.

Explain the conversion of sensory information into Neural impulses.

Answers

Kavungya
Sound, light, and other stimuli from the surrounding cannot travel through our nerves into the brain. Our sensory organs convert the physical properties of various stimuli into neural impulses. This conversion process is called transduction and it takes place at sensory receptors area. The connecting neurons then take the information to the brain, the brain then interpret this into what we experience. We are just aware of the stimuli in our environment if we have sensory receptors e.g. we cannot hear some high pitch sound.
