the behavioral pattern of an individual. Scholars, over the years, have explored this phenomenon of what influences our behavior and have shown that intuition is not adequate enough to explain behavior.

Sense Perception Reflection “We see and understand things not as they are but as we are” Discuss this claim in relation to perception. Knowledge Question: To what extent does our sense perception limit the way we perceive reality?

a specific purpose for integration, which have complex functions of their own, each part of the brain interacts with one another in complex ways that contribute to the integration of sensory information to the reality we are all so familiar with (Eagleman, 2015a). As explained by Doctor David Eagleman (2015a), the brain is like a city. There is no true single place that reality could be said to exist in the mind.

Knowledge, Berkeley posits the doctrine of idealism largely in response to the theory of perception connected to representationalism. While the representationalist would agree that only sensory ideas can be immediately perceived, Berkeley 's view dramatically differs from representationalism in that he denies the existence of material objects and, consequently, the causal role they are presumed to hold in producing sensations (Heide 15 Sept).

Understanding sensation as a process where physical stimuli or feeling sent from sensory organs to our brain, I could relate the information of module 5 with my everyday experience. Learning the principal methods of operation of audition, vision, touch, taste and smell help me to obtain a deeper knowledge about our sensory organs and their interaction with stimuli, sensors, and our brain. Also, I gained a more valuable understanding of placebo effects and their implications in mental processes. I
To know how perception interacts with the brain to create reality we first have to better understand perception. Perception is the active process of selecting, organizing, and interpreting the information brought to the brain by the senses.

There are many different neurotransmitters that can be described in this unit but I will only be discussing four. The first Neurotransmitter which is located near the cortex, spinal cord, and target organs is activated by the parasympathetic nervous system which is called Acetylcholine (ACh). It was the first neurotransmitter discovered. This neurotransmitter was released from motor neurons to muscle fibers to make them bond. It affects learning and memory in the brain. A behavior that it can cause
of their inputs and therefore are representations and reflections of their surrounding environments. Marx observed social existence and economical class position to help support this claim. Locke made the statement that ideas are reflections of sensations. Herder described the physical attributes of the land lead to the creation of varying skills, which in turn create unique communities of particular personalities. Marx observed that "it is not the consciousness of men that determines their existence
