Answer 1

To effectively organize the components that help an organism process sensory input from simplest to more complex, you can use the following components:

1. Sensory Receptors - These are the most basic components that detect stimuli (e.g., light, sound, touch).
2. Neurons - These are the cells that transmit signals from the sensory receptors to the central nervous system.
3. Nervous System Processing Centers - This includes areas in the brain and spinal cord that integrate and process the incoming sensory information.
4. Perception - This is the brain's interpretation of sensory input, allowing an organism to make sense of the world around them.

Now, organizing the components in the response area:
