Sensation is not the same as perception. Succinctly definesensationanddefineperception. Include in your definitionof sensationand perception what level of the nervous system(sensory receptors or cortex) each of these processes is documented to occur. An optimal discussion answerwill integrate 3 examples(from your course material notes,the text and/or other knowledge) that clearly illustrate how sensation is a different process than perception. You need to explicitly make the point how each of your examples provides support for the contentionthat sensation is not the same as perception. One of these 3 examples should includean illusion (that is not a reversible figure) and another should include a reversible figure type of illusion (so I know that you comprehend the difference between the two types of illusions).A third examplecan be any sort of an illusion or reversible figure, or some other relevant example(like size constancyor blindspot informationor feel free to surprise me with an original example). Know that the examples you decide to write aboutwill dictate the supportive statements you can accurately make.This discussion option answer can be completely written in about 12 statements.
