Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: Conversion of the energy forms of stimuli into electrical energy by the receptors is known as sensory transduction. Stimulation of nerve endings or a receptor cell by the appropriate stimulus leads to the generation of a nerve impulse.
Detailed explanation-2: -Each receptor type conveys a distinct sensory modality to integrate into a single perceptual frame eventually. This information is achieved by the conversion of energy into an electrical signal by specialized mechanisms.
Detailed explanation-3: -The conversion from sensory stimulus energy to action potential is known as transduction.
Detailed explanation-4: -Sensation is the activation of sensory receptors at the level of the stimulus. Perception is the central processing of sensory stimuli into a meaningful pattern involving awareness. Perception is dependent on sensation, but not all sensations are perceived.
