Larry goes to the doctor complaining that he cant see the right side of the visual field with either eye. Where in the visual signal-processing pathway is Larrys problem occurring?

What is the difference between a sensation and a perception. Name four types of sensory receptors.

what is  an example of a sensory neuron being changed by external physical stimulation?

The inner ear is responsible for both hearing and balance. One of the diseases affecting the inner ear is Meniere's disease. Affected individuals often experience vertigo, among other symptoms. Vertigo is a sensation that the surrounding is spinning or swaying in the absence of any body movement. Which of the following rows correctly identifies the affected structure and process in individuals experiencing vertigo? Select one: a. Structure  Process   Semicircular canals   Rotational equilibrium b. Structure  Process Semicircular canals   Gravitational equilibrium c. Structure  Process   Organ of Corti   Gravitational equilibrium d. Structure  Process Organ of Corti   Rotational equilibrium

What additional sensory information would you expect a person with impairment of organs of equilibrium touse to supplement their relative lack of some sensory information?

When the eyes are open, what sensory organs provide information needed to maintain equilibrium?

Which sensory receptors permit you to perform actions such as finding your way into bed in the dark?
