What are the differences between sensation and perception?

Feeling and perception, what is the difference between them? Both sensation and perception are given to us from our very birth, we learn to use them. Sensation is the most primary chain that leads us to the knowledge of the external world. Sensations are inherent in us by nature, this sense of smell, hearing, sight, taste, sensation occurs when our nervous system reacts to any stimulus. When we react to something, our body involuntarily perceives everything, be it conversation, laughter, noise, etc., this is our whole sensation. Perception, this process is more complex in our body, because sensations are also associated with perception. For example, we are holding in our hands an object from which there is a scent, color, shape, size, and so on. Of this all, perception can only be attributed to aroma, to admire the shape, size, color. But he will feel this object to the touch, remember how the fingers touched it, how hard, soft, prickly, delicate and so on, we will refer this to perception. In the future, when we see the same object, both the process of sensation and the process of perception will be deposited in our memory. So, sensations and perceptions are an integral part of each other, without which, we would not be able to fully study this or that subject, or a living organism.
