How do the different sense organs help us do your work?

Senses allow us: to protect ourselves from things in our environment that can harm us such as heat, cold, poison, predators, etc.; to seek things that will help sustain us such as insulation, food, sex, friendly people, etc.; and to tell us when something is wrong or lacking in the body itself such as hunger, pain, fatigue, and fever.

In sapient beings (such as human beings) the senses can also be used in order to better the self and others through more refined use of sensory input. For example, sight is further refined to read Words, which can impart knowledge into the brain that other animals can only learn through direct examples. For example, a dog may be able to learn to operate a doorknob by seeing another creature use the doorknob, whereas a person can read about a doorknob and operate it for the first time without seeing it done.
