Transduction
Psychology ⇒ Sensation and Perception
Transduction starts at 10 and continues till grade 12.
QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Transduction.
How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take.
When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 11
A person is unable to taste sweet foods due to damaged taste buds. Which process is most likely affected?
A person touches a hot surface and quickly pulls their hand away. Which process allowed the heat to be detected and sent to the brain?
Describe how transduction differs between the senses of vision and hearing.
Describe how transduction in the skin allows us to feel temperature changes.
Describe the difference between sensation and transduction.
