Press your thumb gently on the tip of a sharpened pencil. Later press it on the blunt end of the pencil. How do you feel? Why?

Answer»
  • When we press our thumb gently on the tip of a sharpened pencil it makes us feel pain. 
  • The sensory receptors sense the sharpened pencil’s press and the message is sent to brain through sensory nerve. 
  • Then the brain interprets the message and sends signals to feel pain through motor nerves. 
  • When we press our thumb with the blunt end of the pencil we do not feel pain because the sensory receptors (touch receptors) sends the message to brain through sensory nerve. 
  • Brain interprets the message and sends signals to our thumb to feel soft through motor nerves.

Answer»
  • The skin contains numerous sensory receptors which receive information from the outside environment.

Enter into a dark room from a very bright place.What happens? Sit in a dark room for sometime. Then go into a bright light room. What happens?

Answer»
  • If we enter into a dark room from a very bright place first we cannot see anything in the room. 
  • Because the pupil is very small in size and very less amount of light enters into the eyes. 
  • As the time progresses the pupil becomes large in size and we will be able to see things properly. 
  • If we go into a bright light room from a dark room, at first we cannot see anything in light from because the pupil does not bear the intensity of light. 
  • The pupil gradually lessens its size and we are able to see things properly.
47.

What illusions tells us about sensation?

Answer»
  • When our mind deceives us by interpreting a stimulus pattern incorrectly, we are experiencing an illusion. 
  • Such illusions can help us to understand some fundamental properties of sensation and particularly the descripancy between what we see and external reality.

Many sensory illusions may be described as the aftereffects of the stimulation, or overstimulation, of the senses. Sensitivity in any of the senses may be measured as the just-perceptible intensity (threshold, or limen) of the appropriate stimulus. The smallest detectable stimulus is called the absolute threshold, while the smallest detectable change in the intensity of a stimulus is called the difference threshold. Such thresholds can serve as points of reference, or anchors, against which subsequent stimuli are judged or perceived. Yet sensory anchors fluctuate within the same individual under different conditions, and in some cases they can mislead a person about the properties of subsequent stimuli. For example, two successive stimuli may be identical but nevertheless give the illusion of being different.

This illusion may be explained in part by a “fading trace” theory, proposed by Gestalt psychologists. The theory suggests that a physical trace (in the form of temporarily excited nerve cells) of an original stimulus remains in the brain even after that stimulus stops and that this trace influences the estimate or appreciation of a subsequent stimulus.

The strength of the trace, also called an aftereffect, and the speed of its disappearance vary greatly in individual cases. People who are field dependent (that is, who tend to observe a field in its totality) are said to show weaker aftereffect traces. Conversely, field-independent subjects (those who, by selective attention, are more likely to consider a specific stimulus apart from its context) show stronger aftereffects.

  • Observe the movements of the rubber sheet while he is shouting. 
  • Observe the rice grains also.
Observations:
1. Due to the vibrations in the rubber balloon the rice grains move up and down when we shout ‘Oh’ at the narrow opening of the funnel. 
2. When we put the narrow end at the opening of our eye we hear the sound of heart as lub dub, lub dub …………….
