Explanation:

Although the concepts of perception and sensation can appear very similar at first, they are in fact very different. Sensation refers to the reception of sensory information as it is detected by a sensory receptor. However, perception comes afterwards, and it refers to a brain process by which this information is received, organized, interpreted and ultimately consciously experienced.
