“Unit 4 Sensation & Perception”(TASTE, FEEL, HEARING,SMELL)

Question 1

what’s “auditory localization”?

and provide what are they?

Answer 1

2 cues tell you where the sound is coming from

Intensity(loud) and timing

Question 2

A theory in our “touch and feel” that there is a “gate” that blocks “pain” from reaching the Spinal cord sometimes

Answer 2

Gate Control Theory

• Amplitude

- Frequency/ Wavelength

Question 15

Explain the process of the “auditory pathway” in order.

Answer 15

Pressure waves- Pinna- Auditory Canal- Eardrum- Ossicles- BAssilar membranes (Cochlea cilia)- Auditory Nerve- Thalamus- temporal lobe- Auditory cortex

Question 16

the outer ear that collects sound from the outside world (auditory)

Answer 16

Pinna

Question 17

pressure waves go down in here to the eardrum (auditory)

Answer 17

Auditory canal

start vibrating at the same frequency as the pressure waves (auditory)

Answer 18

eardrum

Answer 19

The Basilar membrane

Question 20

takes the neural impulses from cochlear cilia to the brain. (auditory)

Answer 20

Auditory nerve
