TOUCH/OTHER SENSES

                      The sense of touch is the mix of four distinct senses--pressure, warmth, cold, and pain.

                       Pain tells the body something has gone wrong. Caused person to feel discomfort and results in a change of their behavior (moving hand off stove because it starts to get really hot)
                     
                     The Gate control theory states our spinal cord contains neurological "gates" that either block pain or allow it to be sensed.
                       Other senses include:
 

Temperature- Sense of heat, absence of cold by the skin

Vestibular sense- allows an organism to sense direction, body movement and acceleration. Helps maintain balance

Kinesthetic sense- provides the parietal cortex of the brain with information on the relative positions of different parts of the body

Time- refers to how the passage of time is perceived or experienced
