Senses, Brain & Responses
Science · Organisms & Life Processes · conceptual
Use a model to describe that animals receive information through their senses, process it in their brain, and respond in different ways
What mastery looks like
- Describe the pathway: sense organ detects stimulus → brain processes information → body responds
- Give examples of different animal senses (sight, smell, hearing, echolocation, vibration)
- Explain how the same stimulus can produce different responses in different animals
Check your understanding
