The fovea centralis is tightly packed with receptors which can receive clear and highly detailed information.

The fovea centralis, or fovea, is a small depression within the neurosensory retina where visual acuity is the highest.

The fovea itself is the central portion of the macula, which is responsible for central vision.

To form high resolution images, the light must fall on the fovea, and that limits the acute vision angle to about 15 degrees.

In low light, this fovea constitutes a second blind spot since it is exclusively cones which have low light sensitivity.

Human fovea consists of 3 spectral types of cones: long wavelength cones, medium wavelength cones and short wavelength cones.

To identify the molecule that accepts CO2, Calvin and Benson manipulated the carbon-fixation cycle by either cutting off CO2 or

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

The CO2 acceptor concentration would increase when the CO2 is cut off, but decrease when the light is cut off.

Explanation:

Calvin's light-independent reactions cycle breaks down on three basic stages: fixation, reduction, and regeneration.

All organisms need energy to perform life functions, and energy that is released is reused in other ways. Some plants have evolved mechanisms to increase the CO2 concentration in their leaves under hot and dry conditions.

Explain the characteristics scientists use when

Alexxx [7]

Answer AND Explanation:

Classification is the orderly arrangement of organisms into groups based on their similarities. The modern method of classifying organisms was devised by Carolus Linnaeus. The characteristics used include:

Anatomical structure- whether the organism is prokaryotic or eukaryotic
Biological processes for example photosynthesis in plants and production of hormones.
Cell structure
Body type- unicellular or multicellular

Mode of nutrition- heterotrophic or autotrophic
