A) without transduction of sound waves into a neural signal, technically, there is no sound.
B) bottom-up processing does not allow conceptual knowledge to influence perception, and so there is no sound.
C) for a sound to be defined as such, it must cross absolute threshold in a human ear.
D) vibrations in air pressure are best detected by the auditory sense, rather than the olfactory, somatosensory, gustatory, or visual sense.
