Question

You open your eyes in the morning and see flowers by your bedside. At that point, your eyes are receiving light energy, which they change into neural messages for the brain to process. This conversion of one form of energy into another is called:
a. sensation.b. adaptation.c. transduction.d. perception.

Answer 1

Answer:

c. transduction.

Explanation:

Transduction defined by the Merriam Webster dictionary is the action of transduce, which is to convert something (such as energy or a message) into another form. In the example we see that the person is opening his/her eyes and start seeing the morning and noticing that there are flowers by the bed. The eyes at this point start receiving such image and start changing it into a neural message for the brain to process, this process is called transduction.
