Answer:

perception; cognition.

Explanation:

A sensory system can be defined as components of the central nervous system (CNS) which comprises of the brain, neural tissues or pathways and sensory neurons responsible for sensory functions, perception and processing sensory informations such as sound, light, heat, etc.

Basically, the central nervous system (CNS) interprete the neural signals that are generated from stimuli that are detected by the sensory system. The five (5) main sense organs in the sensory system are: skin, tongue, ears, nose and the eyes.

Cerebral cortex is mainly responsible for various bodily functions such as movement, processing information from the five senses, comprehension of messages (informations) and the ability to understand. It is a thin layer found in the brain that is responsible for covering the outer portion or part (about 1.5mm to 5mm) of the cerebrum.

Generally, the cerebral cortex is also referred to as gray matter and it's mainly covered by the meninges.

A photoreceptor can be defined as a specialized cells or neuron found in the eye's retina that are able to detect and react to light.

Perception refers to the ability of an individual to see, hear, and take cognizance of sensory informations through the senses.

On the other hand, cognition is the ability of an individual to understand or interpret sensory informations through thought and the senses.

In conclusion, Fanny's recognition of the words illustrates perception while cognition involves the process of relating the information to her experiences.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Psychosocial development or the "Theory of psychosocial development" as defined by Erikson with the help of Joan Erikson constitutes eight stages from infancy to adulthood which an individual must successfully pass in order to have a healthy development. There are various goals all along the way created by conflicts and consequences, that must be met.

If an individual reconciles with the conflicts of one stage, he emerges from that stage with the associated virtue of the same. If he fails to do so, these might present as conflicts later again in the subsequent stages which he will have to solve later. Each of these stages is temporary and the success in the previous stage is not a prerequisite to enter into the next one.
