Sensory system
The sensory system is a network of specialized organs and nerves that detect and interpret stimuli from the environment and inside the body. It includes senses like sight, hearing, taste, smell, touch, and balance, each with specific receptors that respond to different types of stimuli. These receptors send signals to the brain, allowing us to perceive and respond to our surroundings. The sensory system is essential for awareness, navigation, communication, and survival, providing continuous feedback about temperature, pressure, pain, and other sensations.
