Stimulus And Response That Involves Your Sense Of Hearing
For vision a stimulus can be very far away.
Stimulus and response that involves your sense of hearing. An example of an external stimulus is hearing a loud noise or touching a hot object a response is what you to voluntarily or involuntarily in response. Sound the stimulus for hearing is made up of a series of pressures usually of air that can be represented as waves. For example the visual system perceives light from stars at enormous distances.
With conductive hearing loss hearing problems are associated with a failure in the vibration of the eardrum and or movement of the ossicles. Hearing is the process by which the ear transforms sound vibrations in the external environment into nerve impulses that are conveyed to the brain where they are interpreted as sounds. For the sense of hearing a stimulus can be a moderate distance away some baleen whale sounds can propagate for many kilometers.
Given the mechanical nature by which the sound wave stimulus is transmitted from the eardrum through the ossicles to the oval window of the cochlea some degree of hearing loss is inevitable. Sound waves have three characteristics amplitude frequency and purity each of which is related to a psychological experience.
