Chapter 11, Problem 22CYU
Summary Introduction
To review:
The pattern of neural processing that occurs when your finger accidentally touches a hot grill, and the name of that response.
Introduction:
Neural processing is the mechanism, during which a message signal is transmitted from the sensory organ to the brain where it is analyzed and a response with respect to the input received is delivered from the brain to the effector organ(s) or tissue(s). Neural processing is of two types—serial and parallel.
