The conversion of the stimulus into an action potential to be interpreted by the brain is called transduction.
Signal transduction is the process of by which signals between cells carried by neurotransmitters, hormones, and many others are converted into biochemical signals within the brain cells. The stimulus is translated into action potential by a type of cell called the sensory receptor. The receptor cells convert the stimulus into an electrical signal.
There are three stages of transduction:
- Reception: a cell detects a signal when the chemical signal binds to the cell's receptor protein.
- Transduction: the signal chemical change the receptor protein, initiating the transduction [rocess.
- Response: the signal triggers a certain cellular response.
