Answer:

sensation; perception

Step-by-step explanation:

When an organism experiences something that activates one of the sense organs then it is called sensation. During the process of sensation an organism detects the presence of a stimulus, it may be internal or external.

Perception is the act of interpreting the stimulus which was sensed. Perception dictates how an organism reacts to a stimulus.

Hence, the statement is referring to sensation and perception.
