What is hallucinations?
Subjective awareness of a stimulus
What is a sensation?

Encapsulated nerve endings are more sensitive and less selective to stimuli, True or False?
Which of these is consciously communicated?
Blood pressure, smooth muscle tension, lateral eye movement
What is lateral eye movement?
Prevents information overload by filtering out common stimuli in the brainstem
What is habituation?
The term for the type of stimulus something produces
