Sensation

<h3>How does sensory transduction work?</h3>

Action potentials, or electrical impulses, are nearly entirely how the brain functions. (This is not the complete picture; there are more chemical components, but for the sake of this response, we will disregard them.) How to turn an universe of non-electrical inputs into a signal that the brain can understand is the issue at hand. Therefore, we have transducers—things or structures that can convert various forms of energy into electrical impulses that our brains and, incidentally, electronics can use.

On their cell membranes, sensory cells express a variety of chemicals. These structures serve a range of purposes, including supporting tissue integrity, acting as receptor sites, and carrying out signaling processes. The majority of these receptors react to chemical stimuli, such as those that adrenaline binds to in the heart, those that muscles express in the form of insulin and glucagon receptors, and so on. Some of these structures will, however, react to outside forces.

The minimum amount of energy needed to start a chemical reaction is known as:
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

The correct option is B. Activation energy

Explanation:

The activation energy is usually used to designate the minimum energy necessary for a given chemical reaction to occur, that is, the basic requirement for the reaction to proceed.

For a reaction to occur between two molecules, they must collide in the correct orientation and have a minimum amount of energy. As the molecules approach, their electron clouds are rejected. This requires energy (activation energy) and comes from the heat of the system, that, is, from translational, vibrational energy, etc of each molecule. If the energy is sufficient, the repulsion is overcome and the molecules are close enough for a rearrangement of the bonds of the molecules.

The concept of Activation energy was introduced by Arrhenius in 1889. Arrhenius suggested that molecules must prossess a minimum amount of energy to react. That energy comes from the kinetic energy of the clliding molecules. Kinetic energy serves to cause reactions, but if the molecules move very slowly, the molecules will only bounce when they collide with other molecules and the reaction does not happen. In order for the molecules to react, they must have a total kinetic energy that is equal to or greater than a certain minimum value of energy called activation energy.
