Perception involves the analysis and interpretation of the raw data received through sensation.

Internal noise (A) refers to the interference within an organism that may be caused by physiological or psychological factors, and is not related to perception. Statistical significance (C) and psychophysics (D) are related to the quantitative measurement and analysis of sensory information, but are not equivalent to perception.
