Summary:

Animals (among which is the human being) use physiological sensors to obtain information from their surroundings.Among them we can find electrical, magnetic, thermal, chemical, mechanical and optical sensors, to name a few. Several of these sensors are shared, to a greater or lesser extent, by various animals, although they are more developed in each other.This occurs in humans, because the five senses (view, hearing, touch, smell and taste) are not equally efficient).The most used sense is that of the view, followed by the ear, surely because both allow distance detection;While the first is based on light signals, the second requires acoustic stimuli. In this book there are experiences related to these two senses, whose sources of information (light and sound, respectively) share, with the appropriate nuances, characteristics of the undulating phenomena.The necessary materials for each experience are easy to achieve, as they are in most teaching centers and, also, in many homes.
