5 Written Questions

1. binocular cue; just distance and death; distant objects appear hazy and blurred
2. part of the inner ear; structure on service and basilar membrane that connects thousands of tiny hair cells (receptor cells) for hearing; each hair is taught by fibers that push and pull the vibrations of the basilar membrane and brain pools the information
3. process by which our senses adjust to different levels of stimulation; in addition there are two types-light and dark; the sensitivity of rods and cones change accord how much light is available
4. middle ear; free tiniest bones in the body; quivering of eardrum causes these bounds to hate in sequence and carry vibrations to the oval window
5. sense of equilibrium-orientation and/or position in space; originates in inner ear-movement of fluid in the semicircular canals relays messages about speed and direction of body rotation

5 Matching Questions

1. afterimage
2. monochromats
3. color constancy
4. phi phenomenon
5. trichromats

1. a illusion of apparent movement; caused by flashing lights in the sequence; example-neon lights
2. b tendency to perceive familiar objects as a color despite changes in sensory information; example-blue under fluorescent lights but not so blue and natural light--> it is still blue
3. c sensory experience that occurs after a visual experience has been removed; when eyes adjust to stimulation (or lack of) but they do not completely adjust/adapt
4. d individuals who see no color at all; respond only to shades of light and dark; very rare
5. e individuals with normal color vision

   4. monaural cues

5 True/False Question

1. light adaptation → process by which rods and cones become less sensitive to light in increased levels of light; takes approximately 1 minute to adjust
   

   True        False

2. stretch receptors → works with kinesthetic senses; specialized nerve endings that are attached to muscle fibers that sense of muscle stretches and contractions
   

   True        False

3. vestibular sacs → two sacks in the inner ear by the semicircular canals that since gravitation forward, backward, and vertical movement
   

   True        False

4. taste buds → visual receptor cells; located in retina; 8 million in each eye; works best in bright light; chiefly responsible for viewing color; greatest density in the fovea
   

   True        False

5. shadowing → illusion that gives depth to spherical objects to give it a three-dimensional quality
   

   True        False
