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.

ladessa [460]

The right options are; makes food for all organisms, adds oxygen to the atmosphere, is a source of medicines and fibers, is a source of building materials and it provides animal habitat.

Photosynthesis is a process by which green plants and some other autotrophs use light energy in chloroplasts to generate carbohydrates (food) from carbon dioxide and water while oxygen is being released as a by-product. Photosynthesis is essential to all living organisms on earth because it is the main source of oxygen in the atmosphere. Photosynthesis provides animal habitat, it provides food for all organisms (directly for plants and indirectly for animals). Plants and trees produce their foods through photosynthesis and are used as medicines and fibers, and as building materials.
