Describe Sensory Adaptation

      

Describe Sensory Adaptation.

  

Answers


Kavungya
This is tendency for our sensory receptors to show decreasing responsiveness to stimuli that continue without change. Although it is not clear exactly how sensory adaptation occurs, the most likely explanation is that it is caused when our nerve cells fire less frequently after levels of stimulation.
