Senses are the physiological methods of perception. The senses and their operation, classification, and theory are overlapping topics studied by a variety of fields, most notably neuroscience, cognitive psychology (or cognitive science), and philosophy of perception. The nervous system has a specific sensory system, or organ, dedicated to each sense.

Are people with common sense generally better at Science than others?
Q. Okay I'm not trying to make fun of anyone. If you're bad at science don't take it that I'm saying you have no common sense.

A. The school environment can contribute by raising awareness. Multi cultural groups can be held on campus as well as gay-straight alliances, which can assist in bridging the gap of understanding between straight students and gay students. There can be a firm doctrine that discrimination of any kind will not be tolerated,
