Human beings do not have the most sensitive or acute sensory systems in the animal world. Some bats can hear frequencies that ex

ceed 100,000 Hertz, dolphins receive auditory messages from great distances, and cats can probably localize sounds better than we do because they can rotate their ears. Rats see better at night than we can, eagles have more acute distance vision, and horses have a wider visual field. Rabbits have more taste buds than we do, and many animals have a keener sense of smell.
This exercise asks you to consider how you would perceive the world if your senses were more acute or sensitive than they actually are.
1. List a few (five or more) things you would see, that you cannot see now, if your sense of vision were "better."
2. List a few (five or more) things you would hear, that you cannot hear now, if you could hear "better."
3. If your chemical senses—taste and smell—were more sensitive, how might you be affected?
4. Why are our senses no more and no less acute or sensitive than they are?
5. If human beings continue to be urban creatures for the next few million years, in what ways might our sensory systems evolve or change?

3. If my sense of taste was more sensitive, I could not bear flavors or fruits as acidic as lemon, mango, maybe I could avoid or consume medicines that contain very strong chemicals, which could affect my health.

 

4. Scientifically it is already proven that the human being has even more developed the senses of sight, smell and hearing than previously believed, which shows that we were perfectly designed.

The human being can make use of his intelligence to create things, and invent so that he can survive in a reasonable way without threatening the lives of other human beings.
