Our senses: sight, hear­ing, taste, smell and touch, keep us informed about our envi­ron­ment. In this sec­tion we look at a sub­set of the ner­vous sys­tem, out abil­ity to sense.  This is also one of those top­ics that may or may not be cov­ered in an Anatomy & Phys­i­ol­ogy 1 course.  If this topic is cov­ered be sure to find out how much detail you need to know. I have meet instruc­tors who gloss over this chap­ter because it is at the end of the A&P 1 course, and I have also meet instruc­tors who expect you to know ever lit­tle piece of infor­ma­tion.  Be sure to find out.
