Transdutsioon
Transdutsioon is a term used across disciplines to describe the conversion or transfer of energy, signals, or information from one form to another. The exact meaning varies by context, but common themes include conversion of energy and mediation of signals within biological systems or engineered devices.
In biology, transduction refers to signal transduction, the process by which a cell perceives external signals
In genetics, transduction denotes the transfer of genetic material from one bacterium to another via bacteriophages.
In sensory physiology, sensory transduction means converting environmental energy into neural signals. Examples include phototransduction in
In engineering, transducers are devices that convert one form of energy into another, such as microphones (acoustic
Overall, transdutsioon encompasses both natural and engineered processes that enable information and energy to be converted
