Vision is a top-down "conscious" sensory process. Hearing is a bottom-up, instinctual and reflexive process.

The Moro Reflex creates the sync necessary between mechanoreceptors in the limbs and the membranes in the inner ear. This results in proprioception.

A new born infant's cry serves as the baseline physical feedback loop for initial sensory integration with the external environment.

Ensuring proper breathing and vocalization after birth requires the baby develop reflexive control of smooth muscle in the diaphragm and chest.

The sense of hearing is a bottom-up, instinctual sensory system. Vision is a top-down process, kicking in after initial sensory integration through hearing.

The postnatal innervation of the "reflex arc" is essential for proper endogenous smooth muscle function in the digestive tract.

Endogenous processes in the digestive tract rely on smooth muscle, which is involuntarily controlled through the reflex arc.

The auditory pathway is responsible for the baseline human sensory integration with the external environment.

Our physical "sense of self", proprioception, is triggered by the innervation of inner ear membranes located in the auditory pathway.
