Detailed explanation-1: -Sense organs are the structures that convert information about the outside world and the inside environment into a form suitable for processing by the central nervous system. The most usual form into which this information is transformed is a series of propagated nerve impulses.
Detailed explanation-2: -Specialized cells and tissues within these organs receive raw stimuli and translate them into signals the nervous system can use. Nerves relay the signals to the brain, which interprets them as sight (vision), sound (hearing), smell (olfaction), taste (gustation), and touch (tactile perception).
Detailed explanation-3: -The five senses-sight, taste, touch, hearing and smell – collect information about our environment that are interpreted by the brain. We make sense of this information based on previous experience (and subsequent learning) and by the combination of the information from each of the senses.
Detailed explanation-4: -Organs such as the eyes, nose, ears, tongue, and skin are associated with sensory receptors responsible for receiving stimuli from the outer environment.
Detailed explanation-5: -Sense organs are the specialized organs composed of sensory neurons, which help us to perceive and respond to our surroundings. There are five sense organs – eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and skin.
