Across
- 1. the sense of smell
- 3. nerve pathways traveling from the optic chiasm to the thalamus,hypothalamus,and midbrain
- 5. small bumps on the tongue that contain taste buds
- 6. a depth cue that requires the use of both eyes
- 7. the sense of hearing
- 9. the ability to use the two dimensional image projected on the retina to perceive three dimensions
- 11. nerve carrying sound information from the cochlea to the brain
- 13. a structure located on the basilar membrane that contains auditory receptors
- 14. the structure in the inner ear that contains auditory receptors
- 16. a nerve carrying olfactory information from the olfactory receptors to the olfactory bulbs
- 18. a theory of color vision that suggests we have a red,green color chanel and a blue,yellow color channel in which activation of one color in each pair inhibits the other color
- 19. the difference between the images projected onto each eye
- 20. bulb one of two structures below the frontal lobes of the brain that receive input from the olfactory receptors in the nose
- 21. a depth cue that requires the use of only one eye
- 22. a structure found in papillae that contains taste receptor cells
Down
- 2. a theory of color vision based on the existence of different types of cones for the detection of short,medium,and long wavelengths
- 4. membrane in the cochlea on which the organ of corti is located
- 8. the sense of taste
- 10. the nerve exiting the retina of the eye
- 12. the body senses,including body position,touch,skin temperature,and pain
- 15. the theory that suggests that input from touch fibers competes with input from pain receptors,possibly preventing pain messages from reaching the brain
- 17. the system in the inner ear that provides information about body position and movement
