Which part of the brain is responsible for hearing and memory?

The temporal lobe is primarily responsible for hearing, while memory processes are influenced by several brain regions, including the hippocampus, amygdala, and prefrontal cortex. Memory formation and storage occur through complex interactions among these regions.


What are the five sences?

There are five internal senses: 1. The intuition (common sense) combines the forms it receives from the five external senses. 2. The imagination keeps these forms stored. 3. The sense of memory (imaginative power) combines and separates forms kept in the imagination. 4. The estimative power judges perceived salient or of interest (e.g., the sheep that apprehends the perceived wolf as something it should flee from). 5. The memory keeps these prerational estimations.


Which of the following is not an aspect of sensory perception?

Memory is not an aspect of sensory perception. Sensory perception involves the process of detecting stimuli through our senses such as sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. Memory, on the other hand, is the ability to store, retain, and recall information that has been acquired through past experiences.


What is a disease that effects the senses?

One disease that affects the senses is Parkinson's disease, which can impact a person's sense of smell. This is due to the degeneration of certain brain cells that are involved in processing olfactory information. Additionally, diseases like diabetic neuropathy can affect sensory nerves, leading to problems with touch sensation.


What percent of your brain is used for senses?

Approximately 20% of the brain is dedicated to processing sensory information from the five senses (sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell). This part of the brain includes areas such as the visual cortex, auditory cortex, and somatosensory cortex, which are responsible for integrating and interpreting sensory inputs. The rest of the brain is involved in various functions such as cognition, memory, and motor control.
