What is top-down
processing?
CATEGORY 1 - $500
This is the minimum
stimulation needed to
detect a particular
stimulus 50% of the
time.
CATEGORY 1 - $500
What is an Absolute
Threshold?
CATEGORY 2 - $100
This is the conversion
of light energy into
neural impulses that the
brain can understand.
CATEGORY 2 - $100
What is
Phototransduction?
CATEGORY 2 - $200
This is the point where the optic
nerve leaves the eye; there are no
receptors located in this section.
CATEGORY 2 - $200
What is your
blind spot?
CATEGORY 2 - $300
These are the light
sensitive receptors on
the inner surface of the
eye that process visual
information.
CATEGORY 2 - $300
What are rods &
cones?
CATEGORY 2 - $400
This is the genetic disorder
in which people cannot see
colors like red and green.
Extra point for the team that
can give me the fancy term
for this.
CATEGORY 2 - $400
What is color
blindness?
(E.C. Trichromatic theory)
CATEGORY 2 - $500
CATEGORY 2 - $500
This is the perception of
color, as color, even
when lighting and
wavelengths change.
CATEGORY 2 - $500
What is
color constancy?
CATEGORY 3 - $100
This is the theory that
one sense act together
with other senses to
perceive flavor or smell.
CATEGORY 3 - $100
What is sensory
interaction?
CATEGORY 3 - $200

which we transfer odor
from the mouth to back
of the nose.

the receptors on our tongues
respond to.
CATEGORY 3 - $300

These are the 2
variables that effect
our ability to smell.

This is the region in the
brain that allows smells
to be linked with a
person’s experiences
and memories.
CATEGORY 3 - $500
What is the limbic
system?
CATEGORY 4 - $100
This is the conversion
of sound waves into
neural impulses using
the hair cells of the
inner ear.
CATEGORY 4 - $100
What is acoustic
transduction?
CATEGORY 4 - $200
This is the ability to
pinpoint a sound
happening around you
using both of your ears.
CATEGORY 4 - $200
What is
localization of
sound?
CATEGORY 4 - $300
This theory states that
the rate of impulses
traveling up the
auditory nerve enables
us to sense its pitch.
CATEGORY 4 - $300
What is frequency
theory?
CATEGORY 4 - $400

characteristics that allow
our ears to hear pitch,

CATEGORY 4 - $500
CATEGORY 4 - $500
Name and describe
the 2 types of
hearing loss.
CATEGORY 4 - $500
Conduction Hearing loss: caused by damage to
the mechanical system that conducts sound waves
to the cochlea.
Sensorineural Hearing Loss: Hearing loss caused
by damage to the cochlea’s receptor cells or to the
auditory nerve, also called nerve deafness.

receptors for touch
allow us to feel.

open and close in response
to pain as a way to prioritize
pain.
CATEGORY 5 - $500
What is the GateControl Theory?
Our perception needs to
organize figures from the
world around us into a
meaningful forms. Which we
utilize these 4 grouping rules
to achieve.
