Understand the key terms provided in the problem: habituation, transduction, sensitization, and sensory adaptation.
Define habituation as a psychological process where there is a decrease in response to a repeated stimulus over time, often at the behavioral or cognitive level.
Define transduction as the process by which sensory receptors convert physical stimuli into neural signals.
Define sensitization as an increased response to a stimulus following repeated exposure.
Recognize that sensory adaptation specifically refers to the decreased sensitivity of sensory receptors to a constant, unchanging stimulus, which matches the description in the problem.
