Question
Chapter 50.1, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The stimulatory response perceived, which is initiated by electrical stimulation of neuron.
Concept introduction: Stimulatory responses are those responses that is stimulated in an organism or induced in an organism. The stimuli can be natural or by external sources such as electrical impulses.

- WHAT IF? Our brain receives more action potentialswhen our eyes are exposed to light even though ourphotoreceptors release more neurotransmitter in thedark. Propose an explanation.arrow_forwardWatch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/l_3-D1) to learn more about how the brain perceives 3-D motion. Similar to how retinal disparity offers 3-D moviegoers a way to extract 3-D information from the two-dimensional visual field projected onto the retina, the brain can extract information about movement in space by comparing what the two eyes see. If movement of a visual stimulus is leftward in one eye and rightward in the opposite eye, the brain interprets this as movement toward (or away) from the face along the midline. If both eyes see an object moving in the same direction, but at different rates, what would that mean for spatial movement?arrow_forwardIn what way does the overall magnitude of a stimulus affect the just-noticeable difference in the perception of that stimulus?arrow_forward
