How does the cerebral cortex control behavior and mental processes?
Describe the cerebral cortex; locate and describe the function of the four cortical lobes, and important areas in each lobe (pp. 78-82). 2. Define lateralization and describe the specialized and interdependent functions of the brain’s left and right hemispheres (pp. 82-86). STUDY GUIDE CHAPTER 4 SENSATION AND PERCEPTION How do our sensory organs gather sensory information and convert it into signals our brain can understand? 1. Define and differentiate sensation and perception (p. 127). 2. Explain transduction, sensory reduction, and coding in sensory processing (pp. 128-129). How do our eyes and ears enable us to see and hear? Describe the physical properties of light and light waves (pp. 132-133). Diagram the eye, and explain how each structure contributes to the visual process (pp. 133-135). Explain dark and light adaptation (pp. 135-136). Describe the physical properties of sound and sound waves (p. 136). Diagram the ear, and explain how each structure contributes to the auditory p
