Answer:
In more advanced animals, the senses are constantly at work, making the animal aware of stimuli, such as light or sound or the presence of a chemical substance in the external environment, while monitoring information about the organism’s internal environment. All bilaterally symmetric animals have a sensory system. The development of any species ‘ sensory system has been driven by natural selection; thus, sensory systems differ among species according to the demands of their environments. For example, the shark, unlike most fish predators, is electrosensitive (i.e., sensitive to electrical fields produced by other animals in its environment). While it is helpful to this underwater predator, electrosensitivity is a sense not found in most land animals.
Reception is the first step in the processing of sensation and is dependent on the receptor type, stimulus, and receptive field.
