Down: 1) Decreased sensitivity of rods and cones in bright light.2) Drugs, including amphetamines and cocaine, that stimulate the sympathetic nervous system and produce feelings of optimism and boundless energy.3) Receptor cells in the retina responsible for night vision and perception of brightness.5) The least amount of energy that can be detected as a stimulation 50% of the time.6) The area of the retina that is the center of the visual field.7) Any of a number of drugs, such as LSD and mescaline, that distort visual and auditory perception.9) Receptor cells in the retina responsible for color vision.11) Chemicals that slow down behavior or cognitive processes.12) Neurons that connect the bipolar cells in the eyes to the brain.14) An adjustment of the senses to the level of stimulation they are receiving.15) Part of the inner ear containing fluid that vibrates, which in turn causes the basilar membrane to vibrate.17) The quality of texture of sound: caused by overtones.18) The bundle of axons of ganglion cells that carries neural messages from each eye to the brain.19) The bundle of axons that carries signals from each ear to the brain.21) A small opening in the iris through which light enter the eye.27) A mild hallucinogen that produces a "high" often characterized by feelings of euphoria, sense of well-being, and swings in mood from gaiety to relaxation; may also cause feeling of anxiety and paranoia. Across: 4) Chemical substances that change moods and perceptions.8) Neurons that have only on e axon and one dendrite: in the eye, these neurons connect the receptors on the retina to the ganglion cells.10) The transparent protective coating over the front part of the eye.13) The transparent part of the eye behind the pupil that focuses light onto the retina.16) Theory of color vision that holds that three sets of color receptors (yellow-blue, red-green, black-white) respond to determine the color you experience.20) Unit of measurement for the loudness of sounds.22) Auditory experience corresponding primarily to the frequency of sound vibrations, resulting in a higher or lower tone.23) A specialized cell that responds to a particular type of energy.24) The lining of the eye containing receptor cells that are sensitive to light.25) Experimental design useful in studies of the effects of drugs, in which neither the subject nor the research3r knows at the time of administration which subjects are receiving an active drug and which are receiving an in active substance.26) The number of cycles per second in a wave: in sound, the primary determinant of pitch.28) Increased sensitivity of rods and cones in darkness.29) The brain's interpretation of sensory information so aw to give it meaning.30) The smallest change in stimulation that can be detected 50% of the time.
