Answer;

B) stimulus reception → sensory transduction → sensory perception → sensory adaptation.

Step-by-step explanation;

  • Reception is the process of activating a sensory receptor by a stimuli. Sensory transduction is the process of converting that sensory signal to an electrical signal in the sensory neuron.
  • Transduction is the process that converts a sensory signal to an electrical signal to be processed in a specialized area in the brain.
  • Perception is an individual’s interpretation of a sensation. Perception relies on the activation of sensory receptors and takes place at the brain level.
