  1. THE WORLD THROUGH OUR SENSES

  2. Receptor Our body have different types of receptors. These are: • pain receptor • touch receptor • heat receptor • cold receptor • pressure receptor www.parkdee.wordpress.com

  3. Human skin

  5. The degree of sensitivity of the skin depends on the: 1.Thickness of the epidermis • The thinner the epidermis, the more sensitive the skin is to the stimulus 2. Number of receptors presentPMR 05 • The more receptors found on the skin the more sensitive is that part of the skin.

  6. Other functions of the human skin. • Water proof • prevent water loss from skin. • Prevents entry of microorganisms that cause illnesses. • Remove waste products • excess water, urea and mineral salts. • Produces Vitamin D in the presence of the sunlight. • Stabilise body temperature

  7. Fill in the blank with the suitable terms given in the box. Receptors thickness thinner sense of touch touch more number • The skin is an organ of __________________ • There are five types of __ ___ in the skin sensitive to various stimuli. • The sensitivity of the skin depends on the ___________ of the epidermis and the ____________ receptors on the skin. • The ____________ the epidermis, the more sensitive it is to stimulus. • The ________ receptors there are on the skin, the more sensitive it is to stimulus. • Blind people use their ____ to help them read Braille

  13. Sense of smell • When we have a cold or flu, a lot of mucus is produce. The smell receptors are surrounded by this thick layer of mucus and vary little of chemical vapor gets to the smell receptors. Therefore, the smell receptors do not get stimulated enough to effectively function as a sensory organ of smell.

  14. The sensitivity of the nose towards stimuli is influenced by the following factors: PMR 05 • The strength of the smell. A stronger smell will be detected by the nose easily compared with a weaker smell. • The presence of mucus in the nose. A lot of mucus will reduce the sensitivity of the nose.

  15. Human ear • A human ear has three main part. • the outer ear, filled with air. • The middle ear, filled with air. • The inner ear, filled with liquid

  20. Stereophonic hearing • Stereophonic hearing is hearing using both ears. • The advantages of stereophonic hearing: • enables the direction of the source of hearing to be detected more accurately. • This is because the ear nearer the source of sound receives sound louder and earlier than the other ear. • Animals that have stereophonic sound can detect the presence of preys and predators more quickly.

  21. Properties of sound • sound can transferred through; • solids • liquids • gases • cannot be transferred through in vacuum. (particles in solids and liquids are closer each other compared to the molecules in gases. Vacuum is space that does not have any particles.)

  22. The range of frequencies of hearing in man is 20 Hz until 20 000 Hz. The following table shows the range of frequencies of hearing of several animals: Different people have different limitations of hearing.

  24. Reflection and absorption of sound • Sound can be reflected or absorbed by the surface of an object. • The sound reflected repeatedly from one surface is known as echo. • Surfaces that are smooth, even and hard are good sound reflectors and produce loud echo. For examples, concrete, plank, metal and mirror • Surfaces that are rough, hollow and soft are good sound absorbers and produce weak echo. For examples cloth, sponge, cork, rubber, carpet and cushion.

  25. To overcome the limitations of hearing, we use • the stethoscope enables doctor to detect the soft heartbeats of patients. ii. hearing aids collects sound signals before being sent to the middle ear. iii. amplifier boosts weak sound signals.

  34. Stereoscopic vision • - using both eyes. • predator • Advantages • See three-dimensional pictures of objects. • Enables more accurate estimation of distance and position. • Disadvantages • A narrow vision field.

  35. Monocular vision. • using only one eye. • prey • Advantages • having a wide vision field. • Disadvantages • cannot estimate distance accurately.

  36. Experiment Textbook pages 20

  37. Mechanism of SightPMR 03, 07 • The eye lens focuses the image onto the retina by changing the thickness of the eye lens. The thickness of the lens is changed by the cilliarry muscles. i.Focusing near objects To focus near objects onto the retina, the cilliarry muscles contract. The eye lens become thicker. ii. focusing distant object. To focus distant objects onto the retina, the cilliarry muscles relax. The eye lens becomes thinner.
