Explanation:

Sensation and perception are two processes which look very similar to each other but are a different process.

Sensation involves the sensory organs of the body which can sense the physical world around us whereas perception involves the process which involves the brain as it organizes and interprets the sensory input.

1. perception- Taste is considered the perception because the taste is interpreted in the brain.

2. perception- the sensory receptors send the signals about roughness to the brain where the brain tells that the substance has roughness.

3. sensation- playing a song in the grocery store is an example of sensation as the person has just listened to the music and is not interpreting whether it is good or bad.

4. sensation- smell involves the sensory receptors but the taste of the smell is perception therefore is the smell is considered a sensation.

5. sensation- the smell is sensation therefore sensation is correct.

6. perception- perception involves the memory, experience and emotions therefore recognizing Bob is considered perception.

7. perception- reminding of soup involves memory, therefore, is considered perception.

8. perception-loud sound involves the brain, therefore, is a perception

9. sensation-feel of cloth is by sensory receptors but the type of feel will be perception.

10. perception-colour and shape are recognised by the brain and depends on memory, therefore, are perception.
