OBSERVABLE ENTITY CONCEPT - FUNCTIONS
| MODAILITY, FUNCTION | FSN | NARRATIVE DEFINITION | IS-A | INHERENT LOCATION |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| All, Perceptual | Perception function (observable entity) | add | | Cognitive function (observable entity) | | | Brain structure (body structure) | |
| All, Sensory | Sensory function (observable entity) | add | | Nervous system function (observable entity) | | | Structure of sensory nervous system (body structure) | |
| Audition, All | | Auditory function (observable entity) | | An auditory function is a function that endows a person with the capacity to process sound stimuli. The realization of this process is a mental representation of a sound stimulus and the phenomenological experience of hearing. | | Nervous system function (observable entity) | | | Structure of nervous system (body structure) | |
| Vision, All | | Vision function (observable entity) | | add | | Nervous system function (observable entity) | | | Structure of visual system (body structure) | |
| Olfaction, All | | Olfactory function (observable entity) | | add | | Nervous system function (observable entity) | | | Structure of olfactory system (body structure) | |
| Gustation, All | | Gustation function (observable entity) | | add | | Nervous system function (observable entity) | | | Structure of gustatory system (body structure) | |
| Touch, All | | Tactile function (observable entity) | | add | | Nervous system function (observable entity) | | REQUEST | Structure of tactile system (body structure) | |
Audition, Perception | | Auditory perception function (observable entity) | | add | | Perception function (observable entity) | | MODIFY | Structure of central auditory system (body structure) | |
| Vision, Perception | | Visual perception function (observable entity) | | add | | Perception function (observable entity)) | | MODIFY | Structure of central sensory visual system (body structure) |
|
| Olfaction, Perception | | Smell perception function (observable entity) | | add | | Perception function (observable entity)) | | REQUEST | Structure of central olfactory system (body structure) | |
| Gustation, Perception | | Taste perception function (observable entity) | | Taste perception is a function that endows a person with the capacity to create a mental representation of a stimulus based on signals transmitted to the brain from gustatory (taste) sensory organs interacting with the stimulus. The realization of the taste perception function is a mental representation of the stimulus and the phenomenological experience of tasting. Inputs to the taste perception function are signals from the taste sensory transduction function. | | Perception function (observable entity) | | REQUEST | Structure of central gustatory system (body structure) | |
| Touch, Perception | | Touch perception function (observable entity) | | add | | Nervous system function (observable entity) | | REQUEST | Structure of central tactile system (body structure) | |
