How does your brain alter sensory information?

Biology
1 answer:
svlad2 [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer;

-Our brains fill in gaps in our perception.

-If its been a long time since an event occurred, we might imagine things that did not happen.

Explanation;

-One way that our brain may alter sensory information is by filling in information that is not really there. For example a word in a sentence could have a missing word but we probably assume that word is there and keep reading the sentence.

-Another way is applying already known stuff into new situations. For example we have learned that if a dessert is pink, then it is strawberry flavored. If we saw a bowl of vanilla ice cream with pink food coloring, we may assume it's strawberry ice cream.

What would happen to the skin cells if mitosis did not take place
Katena32 [7]
The cells would cease to function <span>after a relatively short amount of time (a few years at best, depending on the amount of cells that part normally has). A living being's body parts would also never grow. They would stay the same size since they were born. The only good result is that without mitosis, cancer wouldn't occur.</span>

Significant amounts of phosphorus are found in all locations on Earth except the..
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Atmosphere

Explanation:

Phosphorus cycle in nature is a unique cycle compared to the other natural biological and chemical cycles such as the carbon, nitrogen, sulfur and water cycles, as there is no gaseous phase in the phosphorous cycle. Due to the prevailing atmospheric temperature and pressure which are not appropriate for the formation of gases associated with phosphorus, the compounds in nature where phosphorus can be found are not gases. Phosphorus can therefore be found majorly in sedimentary rocks.

A mutation exists in a gene that controls hair growth on the middle digit of human fingers. some people have mid-digital hair, w
makkiz [27]
The best explanation that best predicts what happens to the trait over time is that the incidence of mid-digital hair will not change because it offers no selective advantage or disadvantage. A mutation is a sudden, spontaneous random change that occurs in the genetic make up of an organism. The presence or absence of mid-digital hair is controlled by a single gene with two alleles, and the allele H is dominant.
