What gives us the ability to respond to what we see, hear, touch, smell and taste. In general it encompasses the processes by which organisms, including both plants and animals, generate and control movement?
Motor Mechanism
The primary use of this system is to recognize and identify objects
and events that are meaningful in our
daily life.
Sensory System
Is a rigid, external covering or framework that provides structural support and protection to the body of an organism.
Exoskeleton
A mixed sensory category and includes all sensation received from the skin and mucous membranes, as well as from the limbs and joints.
Somatosensation
The most fundamental function of a sensory system is the translation of a sensory signal to an electrical signal in the nervous system.
Transduction
The nervous system responds immediately to temperature changes, while the endocrine system contributes to long-term adjustments.
Reception
The growth and development of plants in response to light. It allows plants to optimise their use of light and space.
Photomorphogenesis
Also known as Statoliths.
Amyloplasts
The ability to detect light patterns from the outside environment and interpret them into images.
Vision
Plant movement in response to touch or contact with objects.
Thigmotropism
It is a type of Photoreceptor protein that contain flavin chromophores.
Cytochromes
This mechanism influences processes like seed germination, phototropism, and flowering.
Light Perception
It holds about 50 percent of the body's fats, attaches the dermis to the bones and muscles, and supplies nerves and blood vessels to the dermis.
Hypodermis
These are also known as the bipolar neurons.
Olfactory neurons
How many days are the taste bud’s taste cells replaced?
