فرض کریں کہ آپ ایک کمرے میں داخل ہوتے ہیں اور کمرے میں اپنی پہلی چہل قدمی پر ایک ناگوار بو محسوس کرتے ہیں، لیکن جب آپ وہاں تھوڑی دیر قیام کرتے ہیں تو آپ اسے محسوس کرنا چھوڑ دیتے ہیں۔ یہ کیا وضاحت کرتا ہے؟
Explanation
Sensory adaptation occurs when the sensory receptors become exposed to stimuli for a long period.
It refers to a reduction in sensitivity to a stimulus after constant exposure to it.
It can occur with our basic senses.
There are multiple examples of sensory adaptation in everyday life.
As an instance, people who smoke no longer notice the smell of cigarette smoke.
