Question

The law of specific energies states that the perception of any sensory stimulus is dependent on the neural innervation of the brain rather than the nature of the receptor This means that any form of stimulation of a nerve for the skin will produce a perception appropriate for the skin If you stimulate the optic nerve you will see and if you stimulate the olfactory nerve you will smell even if you are in total darkness with no odorant chemicals When you tap the ulnar nerve at the elbow you feel tingling in the fingers of that hand This is caused by O the physical stimulation of the nerve initiated action potentials which are propagated to the fingers so you feel the tingling in the fingers O the physical stimulation of the nerve initiated action potentials will are propagated to the cells in the primary optic cortex of the brain so you can see our fingers O the physical stimulation of the nerve initiated action potentials which are propagated to the cells in the primary sensory cortex which are responsible for feeling in the fingers
