Definitions:

Specificity Coding

The theory that certain neurons or groups of neurons in the brain are dedicated to responding to very specific stimuli.

Visual Sensations

The experiences derived from stimuli reaching the eyes, leading to the perception of light, colors, shapes, movement, and depth.

Auditory Sensations

Perceptions of sound, including their pitch, volume, and timbre, as processed by the ear and the brain.

Transduction

The process of converting one form of energy into another, as in sensory systems converting physical stimuli (like light or sound) into neural signals.
