1. The sensory pathway involves four main steps: sensation, transduction, transmission, and perception. Sensory receptors detect stimuli and transduce them into electrical signals.
2. Sound vibrations enter the ear and are transmitted through the middle ear bones to the inner ear fluids, where they are converted to pressure waves that travel along the cochlear duct. Hair cells in the organ of Corti transduce the pressure waves into neural signals sent to the brain.
3. Taste is detected by taste buds on the tongue containing receptors for different tastes. Smell is detected by odor receptors in the nasal epithelium that transmit signals to the olfactory bulb.
The document discusses the history and development of cochlear implants, describing how they work by bypassing damaged inner ear structures to send sound directly to the brain, allowing many with hearing loss to reconnect with others. It provides details on the components, surgical process, programming, and rehabilitation for cochlear implants. The document also discusses ongoing research areas like partial implants and bilateral implantation.
The document summarizes the special senses and their receptors. It discusses how different sensory receptors transduce various forms of energy into nerve impulses. It classifies receptors according to the type of signal they transduce, such as chemoreceptors, photoreceptors, thermoreceptors, and mechanoreceptors. It specifically describes nociceptors, which sense pain when tissues are damaged. The document also discusses the ears and hearing, covering the vestibular apparatus, which provides a sense of equilibrium, and the anatomy of the middle and inner ear.
The document provides an overview of basic mindfulness techniques through a series of gameboards and diagrams. It introduces labels and descriptive phrases for noticing thoughts, emotions, physical senses, and restful states. Additional gameboards demonstrate strategies for focusing attention, nurturing positive states, and "doing nothing." The document aims to illustrate mindfulness practice and its long-term goals of developing concentration, clarity, and equanimity.
This document summarizes sensory and motor mechanisms in the human body. It discusses the five main types of sensory receptors - mechanoreceptors, pain receptors, thermoreceptors, chemoreceptors, and electromagnetic receptors. It also describes photoreception in invertebrates and the vertebrate eye. Hearing and equilibrium are discussed as well as chemoreception for taste and smell. The document concludes by covering movement and locomotion, describing different types of skeletons and how skeletal muscles contract to move the skeleton.
Sensory receptors convert stimulus energy into action potentials that travel along sensory neurons to the brain. The brain then interprets these sensations and perceptions. There are many types of sensory receptors that detect stimuli like touch, sound, temperature and more. Sensory receptors generate receptor potentials that lead to action potentials, which transmit signals through sensory pathways to the brain.

The document summarizes sensory and motor mechanisms in the human body. It describes how sensing, analysis, and action are ongoing and overlapping processes in the brain. Sensory receptors convert stimulus energy like pressure, chemicals, light, and temperature into action potentials. The limbic region determines the importance of sensory input. Hearing and balance both use hair cells in the inner ear that detect fluid movements. Taste and smell receptors detect chemicals and signal the brain. Vision uses rods and cones in the retina that contain photopigments to detect light. Muscle contraction occurs via the sliding filament model as myosin cross-bridges pull actin fibers toward the center of the sarcomere.
The document summarizes excretory systems and processes. It discusses how excretory systems dispose of metabolic wastes and control fluid balance. It describes the different nitrogenous wastes produced by animals, such as ammonia, urea, and uric acid. The document also outlines the key processes of excretion, including filtration, reabsorption, and selective secretion to produce urine. Finally, it provides an overview of the structure and function of the mammalian kidney and urinary system.
This document discusses the key characteristics and evolutionary history of animals. It outlines that animals are eukaryotic, multicellular organisms that rely on other organisms for food and lack cell walls. The document then describes the major eras in Earth's history when major animal diversification occurred, from the Cambrian explosion to the rise of mammals. It also defines important anatomical concepts like symmetry, tissues, body cavities, and phylogeny.

Gills and lungs are specialized respiratory surfaces that facilitate gas exchange in aquatic and terrestrial organisms, respectively. In mammals, respiration occurs through negative pressure breathing controlled by brain centers in the medulla oblongata and pons. Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that transports oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout the body while regulating pH.
Fertilization involves the combining of haploid sets of chromosomes from two individuals into a zygote. This is followed by cleavage, where rapid cell division occurs. Then gastrulation takes place, where cells migrate to locations that will form organs and tissues. Finally, organogenesis occurs, where organ rudiments develop from the three germ layers.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

2. Sensory Pathway
• Sensory Receptions: Detection of a stimulus by
sensory cells or sensory receptors.
• The sensory receptors transfer the physical and
chemical stimulus to a membrane potential, this
process is known as transduction.
• Transduction triggers transmission, which is the
conversion of membrane potential to action
potentials which is then sent to the CNS.
• Perception is the final step and it is when the
action potential is interpreted by the brain and
perceived either as sound, color, smell or taste.
4. Hearing Through Mechanoreceptors
• Humans have a tympanic membrane which is
a hair covered membrane in the ear that
receives sounds and transmits them to the
brain.
• Where sound vibrations enter the ear they
travel through the cochlear duct and the
vibrations are converted to pressure waves.
This information is taken to the brain and two
things are analyzed from the pressure waves,
volume and pitch.

6. Taste and Smell
• Taste is detected by taste buds on a mammals
tongue.
• Taste buds have receptors that can read only
one taste, when a receptor accepts its
respective molecule it attaches it to a protein
that then sends it through a pathway to a
sensory neuron that interprets the taste of the
molecule.
8. Electromagnetic Reception(Seeing)
• Different Types of Eyes
– Compound eyes are found in insects and crustaceans
and consist of up to several thousand light detectors
called ommatidia
– Single-lens eyes are found in some jellies, polychaetes,
spiders, and many molluscs
– Vertebrate Eye; the eye ball, detects color and light, but
the brain assembles the information and perceives the
image
10. Use of Photoreceptors
• In vertebrates the eye detects color and light, but the
brain assembles the information and perceives the
image.
• Absorption of light by retinal triggers a signal
transduction pathway that hyperpolarizes(increases
in polarity) the photoreceptors , causing them to
release less neurotransmitters. Synapses transmit
information from photoreceptors to the brain.
• Rods are light-sensitive but don’t distinguish
colors(peripheral vision).
• Cones distinguish colors but are not as sensitive to
light.

12. Microfilaments and Macrofilaments
Underlie our Muscles
• Myosin heads (thick muscle filaments) bind to
myofibrils (thin muscle filaments) forming
cross-bridges.
• When the myosin heads are energized by ATP
a cycle starts that causes the myosin heads to
bend and slide over the myofibrils, this
process contracts the muscle.
• Cardiac muscle, only within the heart, are
electrically connected striated muscle cells.

14. Skeletal Systems
• Skeletal muscles provide movement by contraction of
the muscle pulling against the skeleton.
• Types
– Hydrostatic Skeleton: Found in most flatworms, nematodes
and annelids, consists of fluid under pressure in a closed
body compartment.
– Exoskeletons: Found in most molluscs and arthropods, are
hard coverings deposited on the surface of an animal.
– Endoskeletons: Found in sponges, echinoderms, and
chordates, are rigid supporting elements embedded with
an animal’s body.
15. Energy Costs
• Animals that specialize in swimming spend
less energy per meter traveled than any other
type of locomotion for an animal their size.
