Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The sequence of events leading to the sensory processing of a stimulus is as follows: 
1) Transmission - The sensory stimulus is received by the sensory receptor and transmitted through sensory neurons to the central nervous system (CNS).
2) Transduction - The sensory information is converted into electrical signals by the sensory receptor, a process known as transduction.
3) Amplification - The electrical signals are amplified by the CNS to enhance the signal strength.
4) Integration - The CNS integrates the sensory information with other sensory and cognitive inputs to create a perception. 
Therefore, the correct sequence is 2 → 4 → 1 → 3, and the best choice is C.
