General Survey Of Sensory Transduction In Aneural Organisms

  • Conference paper
Sensory Perception and Transduction in Aneural Organisms

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSA,volume 89))

Abstract

A living organism is continuously exposed to physical and chemical factors of its environment. This necessitates the organism to perform responses so as to make the best use of these factors or as to avoid injurious effects by them. To be effective, such responses must be regulated by the external factors, and hence these factors have to be recognized or perceived.
