the air's oxygen is partially replaced by carbon dioxide. This is because of the gas exchange that occurs so we can live.
Answer:
Sympathetic nervous system
Explanation:
The sympathetic nervous system of the autonomic division prepares the body for stress or emergency conditions by generating the “fight-or-flight” responses. The sympathetic nervous system triggers the release of stress hormones from the adrenal medulla to generate the set of physiological responses.
There is dilation of the pupil, and an increased rate of heartbeat and increased blood pressure. Other responses include dilation of airways and dilation of blood vessels that supply blood to skeletal muscles, heart muscles, liver, etc. Under the given emergency condition, the sympathetic nervous system of Meghan was activated to generate the fight or flight response.
Answer:
UCS: sticks part of the toy into the electrical outlet
UCR: frightened and crying
CS: toy
CR: frightened to toy
Explanation:
Classical conditioning is a form of learning whereby a conditioned stimulus becomes associated with an unrelated unconditioned stimulus, in order to produce a behavioral response known as a conditioned response.
<u>Unconditioned stimulus</u> (UCS) is an agent that leads to a response without training. In this example, the child won't know that he can have electrical shock playing with toys.
<u>Unconditioned response</u> (UCR) is an automatic response to a UCS that's why the child starts crying and frightened.
<u>Conditioned stimulus</u> (CS) is a former natural stimulus that comes to elicit a given response after pairing with a UCS. In this situation, CS is when mom gives the same toys to the baby that was the reason for electrical shock.
<u>Conditioned response</u> (CR) is a learned response to a CS because the baby shows fear when he saw the same toys. It is his learned behavior.
Answer:
The correct answer is - 1. true, 2. true, 3. false, and 4. true.
Explanation:
1. Rod cells are the photoreceptors present in the retina that are hyperpolarized not depolarized in dark due to sodium ions efflux.
2. Depolarisation of the bipolar cell of the retina by glutamate release by rods and cones.
3. The adaption according to the light is known as a light adaptation which takes place due to a large part of photochemical in both rods and cones which is reduced to retinal and opsins.
4. when the light reaction takes place retinal converted to opsin
Answer:
(B) Energy transfer between trophic levels is almost always less than 20% efficient.
Explanation:
The ultimate source of energy on the Earth is the Sun. The energy coming from the Sun is captured by green plants by the photosynthesis. During photosynthesis sun energy is fixed into chemical energy (carbohydrate). So, in an ecosystem energy flow is unidirectional (from sun to the green plants). The fixed chemical energy from green plants is transferred to the herbivores then to carnivores through food. When one organism eats another organisms, only 10 % of the energy present in the organism is transferred as a food for the next organism and a large amount of energy is lost as heat into the environment. Thus, energy keeps on decreasing when stored energy moves from producers to top consumers. Thus, less than 20% energy transfer limits the trophic levels in most of the ecosystem.
