Our class watched the rugby final at the Stade de France! It was an unforgettable experience, as I have never attended a rugby game before. As I was walking to the rugby game, I got lost in large, loud crowds. Even though I was having trouble finding exactly where I was going, I could not help but reflect on all the enthusiasm and excitement within the crowd. Furthermore, at the rugby game, everyone was yelling for their team. In fact, the brain plays a very important part in our hearing process. The brain actually perceives these signals through a very interesting pathway. For example, hair cells in our inner ear send electrical signals to the auditory nerve. This signal is then processed in the auditory center of the brain. I never really thought about auditory processing before, but the loud rugby game definitely made me look into it!
