1.neither invariant nor linear: The speech signal is
2.perceptual normalization: When a listener simplifies the processing
of the speech signal to smooth out superfluous variability, it is
called
3.categorical perception: One type of quantal perception that occurs as
we listen to speech is called
4.syllable components are presented separately, but simultaneously, to
each ear: In duplex perception:
5.the place and/or manner of articulation is perceived to change: In the
McGurk effect:

does sampling rate relate to playback quality?

20.low pass filter: blocks high frequencies. The best way to avoid
aliasing during a digital recording.
21.band pass filter: allows a band of frequencies though and holds
back both higher and lower frequencies

higher and lower frequencies through
