Senses Detect a Minimum Level

Senses Detect a Minimum Level is a skill on Pengi from Sesson 1: Sensory Thresholds in Amplify Science (California) Grade 4.

Key Concepts

Senses are not infinitely sensitive. There is a minimum level of stimulation required for a receptor to activate and send a signal to the brain. This minimum level is called the sensory threshold .

If a sound is too quiet or a smell is too faint, it falls below the threshold , and the brain remains unaware of it. A stimulus is only perceived when its intensity meets or exceeds this threshold.
