Vision
When a nerve enters the brain, it is now called this instead.
All hearing is based on this.
What are physical vibrations?
This, within the nasal cavity, is responsible for capturing odorants.
What is mucus?
Information from touch goes to this lobe.
What is parietal?
The objective process of absorbing information from our surroundings.
What is sensation?
The portion of the eye that dictates if we have near- or far-sighted vision.
The part of the ear that is responsible for most hearing loss with age.
What is the auditory canal (specifically the hair)?
Each taste bud has a maximum lifespan of this many days.
What is 22 days?
These receptors are responsible for processing the temperature outside of your body
What are thermoreceptors?
The subjective process of interpreting information from our surroundings.
What is perception?
Where the visual information from the optic nerve enters the brain and crosses before going further into the brain.
What is the optic chiasm?
The part of the ear that is responsible for most causes of deafness.
What is the cochlea?
Death has a very particular smell, one that is primarily phosphorus but with an undertone of this.
What is sweet?

The three realms of sensation and perception.
Visual, Physical, and Chemical
The location of our blindspot
What is the optic disk?
The system that allows us to detect our location in space, vertigo, our righting reflex, and the vestibulo-ocular reflex.
What is the vestibular sensory system?
We can smell up to this many different types of scents.
What is 10,000?
These receptors are responsible for processing pain.
What are nociceptive?
The 4 lobes
Frontal, occipital, temporal, and parietal
The five layers of the retina in order of processing.
Rods/Cones, horizontal cells, bipolar cells, amacrine cells, retinal ganglion cells
Part of the brain where auditory information is processed.
Our bodies keep track of our internal pH levels and increase/decrease breathing based on this molecule.
What is hydrogen (CO2 & H2O breakdown)
What are <58 and >114 degrees F?
Cells that communicate via electrical and chemical messengers in our brain/nervous system.
What are neurons?
