¿Cómo funciona?

2.1. Los órganos de los sentidos

El cuerpo humano tiene cinco sentidos principales que utiliza para transmitir información sobre el mundo exterior al cerebro y lo ayuda con otras funciones.

Sentidos

Vista (ojos)

Audición (oídos)

Olfato (nariz)

Gusto (lengua)

Tacto (piel)

2.1.1. Vista (ojos)

La vista es uno de los sentidos que nos ayudan a obtener información sobre lo que está sucediendo a nuestro alrededor. Los ojos son los encargados de captar la luz, que pasa por la pupila, atraviesa el cristalino, llega a la retina (donde se forma la imagen) y envía la información al cerebro por el nervio óptico.

El ojo o globo ocular cuenta con distintas capas que lo protegen como son los párpados, las glándulas lagrimales, las pestañas y las cejas.

2.1.2. Audición (oídos)

Escuchamos a través de nuestros oídos, que perciben las ondas sonoras y las convierten en algo que nuestro cerebro puede entender. Los sonidos entran por la oreja, recorren el conducto auditivo y llegan al tímpano, que vibra. El movimiento del tímpano se transmite por la cadena de huesecillos y llega al caracol, que es el encargado de envíar la información al cerebro por el nervio auditivo.

Tener dos orejas sirve para determinar la dirección del sonido y escuchar mejor.

¿Sabías que en el oído interno hay un líquido que le da información al cerebro sobre su posición y equilibrio?
