Study Notes

The five senses are tools that communicate the outside world to the brain: sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch.
Each sense uses special organs to receive information: eyes for sight, ears for hearing, nose for smell, tongue for taste, and skin for touch.
These senses constantly send information to the brain, which sorts out important messages and tells the body how to respond.

The brain is hardwired for survival, and this influences how it interprets messages from the senses.
The brain prioritizes messages related to survival, such as those related to food, danger, and safety.
Tabby the cat uses her senses to survive, including her sense of touch to feel warmth, hearing to detect presence, smell to detect food, and sight to see her surroundings.

Sight requires light, which reflects off objects and enters the eye, allowing animals to see.
Light is essential for seeing, making it easier to navigate during the day and more challenging at night.
Tabby uses her sense of sight to see her surroundings, detect potential threats, and find food and other important things for survival.
Sight is crucial for an animal's survival, enabling them to see predators, food, water, friends, home, and more.
