Based on where you are in your exploration

Arguments against perception(in epistemology): Philosophical challenges that question whether what we perceive through our senses actually tells us the truth about reality.
Mechanisms(as used to describe biological processes): The specific ways or processes by which something works or produces an effect.
Skeptical arguments(as the main subject being discussed): Philosophical arguments that question whether we can really know anything with certainty, or whether our beliefs are actually justified.
Structurally distinct(as used in comparing philosophical problems): Fundamentally different in how they're organized or set up, even if they might seem similar on the surface.
Superficially resembling(in philosophical analysis): Looking similar on the surface or at first glance, but actually being different in important ways.
intuition(Kant, Prolegomena 4:286): In Kant's usage, immediate sensory or spatial awareness that is not reducible to conceptual thought; the mode by which the distinction between right and left is apprehended.
