Senses

Welcome!

• Review the endtest support and locomotion 
• Recap senses pathway
• Homework 

Perception (waarneming)

• Starts with a stimulus (prikkel) in a sense organ (zintuig). 
• The stimulus is transported as a impuls (electric signal) to your brain. 
• In the brain you perceive the stimulus. 
• From the brain a new impulse is send to muscles or gland (klieren) to react on the stimulus.

Let's practice

• In the next slides you will see pictures of different scenes. 
• For each scene you need to put the sense pathway in the correct order
• Each part of the sense pathway is printed on paper
• When your done you will put the pathway in the air

Example 1

• What is the stimulus? 
• What is the sense organ?
• What is the respons? 
• Put the sense pathway in the correct order.
• Done? Show your pathway in the air! 

Example 2

• What is the stimulus? 
• What is the sense organ?
• What is the respons? 
• Put the sense pathway in the correct order.
• Done? Show your pathway in the air! 

Example 3

• What is the stimulus? 
• What is the sense organ?
• What is the respons? 
• Put the sense pathway in the correct order.
• Done? Show your pathway in the air! 

Example 4

• What is the stimulus? 
• What is the sense organ?
• What is the respons? 
• Put the sense pathway in the correct order.
• Done? Show your pathway in the air! 

Example 5

• What is the stimulus? 
• What is the sense organ?
• What is the respons? 
• Put the sense pathway in the correct order.
• Done? Show your pathway in the air! 

Different sense organs

Treshold 

• An impulse is only send to the brain if the stimulus is strong enough = treshold value (drempelwaarde)
• Example we only hear sounds that are loud enough
• The stronger a simulus the more impuls are send to the brain

Let's work

Make the following questions:
