What is loudness?

This sense is not routed through this brain structure before being processed in the cerebral cortex
What is olfaction?

This is complete color blindness and the rarest form of color blindness where people only see in shades of gray, black, and white
What is monochromatism?

2) Which is the taste associated with savory/meaty flavors?
3) What is not a taste, but is related to endorphins because the active food compound, capsaicin, triggers pain receptors in the mouth, which can lead to a release of endorphins—natural painkillers produced by the body.

What is context effects? (contextual perception)
500
The theory that says pitch perception depends on the rate that the entire basilar membrane vibrates
What is frequency theory?
500
The process of converting sensory input into signals that can be processed in the brain
What is transduction?
500
You see a white dress in bright sunlight, but in a shadow, it appears gray. This is why you still perceive the dress as white
