sensory interaction.

accommodation.

Answer 1

The correct option is: parallel processing

Explanation:

Parallel processing is defined as the brain's potential to process the various stimuli of different quality at the same time. This process involves analyzing and distributing the received stimulus into four compartments: shape, color, motion and depth.

This process also involves assessing and comparing the received stimulus to the stored memory.
