Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This phenomenon is known as coarse coding, where a small number of receptors respond to a wide range of stimuli. Sensory coding refers to the process of translating sensory information into a form that can be understood by the brain. Transduction is the process by which sensory information is converted into neural signals. Sensation refers to the experience of a sensory stimulus.
