  2. Proprioception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proprioception

    For a soleus receptor, Houk and Simon obtain average values of K=57 pulses/sec/kg, A=0.31, a=0.22 sec −1, B=0.4, b=2.17 sec −1, C=2.5, c=36 sec −1. When modeling a cat stretch reflex, Lin and Crago [ 45 ] improved upon this model by adding a logarithmic nonlinearity before the Houk and Simon model and a threshold nonlinearity after.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Situation_awareness

    Perception (Level 1 SA): The first step in achieving SA is to perceive the status, attributes, and dynamics of relevant elements in the environment.

    The typical height of an adult human is between 1.4 and 1.9 m (4 ft 7 in and 6 ft 3 in), although this varies significantly depending on sex, ethnic origin, and family bloodlines. [239] [240] Body size is partly determined by genes and is also significantly influenced by environmental factors such as diet, exercise, and sleep patterns. [241]

  7. Consciousness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consciousness

    Using 'awareness', however, as a definition or synonym of consciousness is not a simple matter: If awareness of the environment . . . is the criterion of consciousness, then even the protozoans are conscious. If awareness of awareness is required, then it is doubtful whether the great apes and human infants are conscious. [26]

    On the molecular level, an increase of the postsynaptic scaffolding proteins PSD-95 and HOMER1c has been shown to correlate with the stabilization of synaptic enlargement. [88] The cAMP response element-binding protein ( CREB ) is a transcription factor which is believed to be important in consolidating short-term to long-term memories, and ...

    The hamadryas baboon is one of many primate species that has been administered the mirror test.. The mirror test—sometimes called the mark test, mirror self-recognition (MSR) test, red spot technique, or rouge test—is a behavioral technique developed in 1970 by American psychologist Gordon Gallup Jr. to determine whether an animal possesses the ability of visual self-recognition.
