A sensory system consists of sensory neurons (including the sensory receptor cells), neural pathways, and parts of the brain involved in sensory perception . Commonly recognized sensory systems are those for vision, hearing, touch, taste, smell, and balance . In short, senses are transducers from the physical world to the realm of the mind where we interpret the information, creating our perception of the world around us . </P> <Dl> <Dd> Organisms need information to solve at least three kinds of problems: (a) to maintain an appropriate environment, i.e., homeostasis; (b) to time activities (e.g., seasonal changes in behavior) or synchronize activities with those of conspecifics; and (c) to locate and respond to resources or threats (e.g., by moving towards resources or evading or attacking threats). Organisms also need to transmit information in order to influence another's behavior: to identify themselves, warn conspecifics of danger, coordinate activities, or deceive . </Dd> </Dl>

When do sight hearing smell and touch most often come into play
