Circle: Which sense would you give up if you had to?

Unit 4 Assignment Sheet

Learning Targets: Understand the following-

What are sensation and perception? What do we mean by bottom-up processing and top-town processing?

What are the absolute and difference thresholds, and do stimuli below the absolute threshold have any influence?

What is the function of sensory adaptation?

What is the energy that we see as visual light?

What are the characteristics of air pressure waves that we hear as sound?

How do the eye and ear transform light and sound energy into neural messages?

How do we experience each of the body’s senses?

How do Gestalt psychologists understand perceptual organization?

How adaptable is our ability to perceive?

How do our expectations, contexts, and emotions influence our perceptions?

Sensation and Perception: Point to remember-We feel, see hear, taste, and smell with our BRAIN, which can sense even without functioning senses.

Synthesize the following:  Why doesn't our brain try to make sense of everything that is happening around us?

Activity:  Create and share your mnemonic device for light passing through the eye.  Vote on which one is the best.

Activity: Synthesize the following:  What do the following tell us about the world YOU live in?

What's the point?:
Make a chart for each person to record answers.
1) A common smell you cannot stand?
2) A type of clothing you cannot wear because of how it feels?
3) A common sound that really bothers you?
4) Do you usually feel hot or cold?
5) What flavor of food do you prefer given a choice? Sweet, sour, salty or bland? Ex. If had to choose between chips and a cupcake, which would you choose a majority of the time.


Activity: As a class, you will be watching series of brief videos relating to Sensation and Perception. Your job will be as a small group to connect what you have watched to what we are studying. You will have one person who is leading the discussion, i.e. restating the question and keep the group focused, another will be the reporter who will explain to the class what specifically this connects to and how it connects once everyone in your group understands. You will be taking notes that you can add to your unit 4 notes. Please bring your book to class!

Synthesize the following:  What do the following tell us about the world YOU live in?


Test Strips: Do you have the gene?

Sodium Benzoate has different taste perceptions than the other papers. A different pair of alleles determines the ability to taste Sodium Benzoate. It can taste sweet, salty, sour, bitter or tasteless, so this paper is often used in conjunction with another taste test, such as PTC, to characterize taste perception, and break tasters/non-taters into subgroups.

The point is, PTC in genetics has been studied for quite some time, and there is quite a bit of information on it. There are several known alleles for the PTC gene, but PTC sensitivity is really controlled by two major alleles in humans. PTC paper either tastes bitter or it doesn’t taste like anything at all. Some tasters can taste a very strong bitter taste, while other tasters can taste a mildly bitter taste. Thus, there can be three classifications of phenotypes in a PTC study (strong tasters, mild tasters, and no taste).
