What is the first step necessary for initiating the visual transduction cascade in rods?.

1 answer:

4 0

'Capturing a photon by<em> isomerization and rhodopsin </em>of retinal' is the first step necessary for initiating the visual transduction cascade in rods.

Visual transduction refers to the process in the eye where absorption of light in the 'retina' is translated into electrical signals that then reach the brain. It is correct to state that visual transduction is the photochemical reaction that takes place when light or photon is converted to an electric signal in the retina. The visual pigment in the rods, called rhodopsin, is a membrane protein placed in the outer segments of the rods.

When initiating the visual transduction cascade in rods the first vital step is to capture a photon by<em> isomerization and rhodopsin</em> of retinal'.

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

#we first get the elements as inputs

x = input("enter string A :")

y = input("enter string B :")

#then we make independent sets with each

x = set(x)

y = set(y)

#then the intersection of the two sets

intersection = set.intersection(x,y)

#another set for the alphabet

#we use set.difference to get the elements present in x and not in y, and

#viceversa, finally we get the difference between the alphabet and the #intersection of the elements in our strings

z = set('abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz')

print('\nrepeated :\n',intersection)

print('differences :\n',' Items in A and not B\n',

set.difference(x,y),'\nItems in B and not A\n',

set.difference(y,x))

print('\nItems in neither :\n',set.difference(z,intersection))

Six housing subdivisions within a city area are target for emergency service by a centralized fire station. Where should the new

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since there are six points, the minimum distance from all points would be the centroid of polygon formed by A,B,C,D,E,F

To find the coordinates of centroid of a polygon we use the following formula. Let A be area of the polygon.

$C_{x}=\frac{1}{6A} sum(({x_{i} +x_{i+1})(x_{i}y_{i+1}-x_{i+1}y_{i}))$ where i=1 to N-1 and N=6

$C_{y}=\frac{1}{6A} sum(({y_{i} +y_{i+1})(x_{i}y_{i+1}-x_{i+1}y_{i}))$

A area of the polygon can be found by the following formula $A=\frac{1}{2} sum(x_{i} y_{i+1} -x_{i+1} y_{i})$ where i=1 to N-1

$A=\frac{1}{2}[ (x_{1} y_{2} -x_{2} y_{1})+ (x_{2} y_{3} -x_{3} y_{2})+(x_{3} y_{4} -x_{4} y_{3})+(x_{4} y_{5} -x_{5} y_{4})+(x_{5} y_{6} -x_{6} y_{5})]$

A=0.5[(20×25 -25×15) +(25×32 -13×25)+(13×21 -4×32)+(4×8 -18×21)+(18×14 -25×8)

A=225.5 miles²

Now putting the value of area in Cx and Cy

$C_{x} =\frac{1}{6A}[ [(x_{1}+x_{2})(x_{1} y_{2} -x_{2} y_{1})]+ [(x_{2}+x_{3})(x_{2} y_{3} -x_{3} y_{2})]+[(x_{3}+x_{4})(x_{3} y_{4} -x_{4} y_{3})]+[(x_{4}+x_{5})(x_{4} y_{5} -x_{5} y_{4})]+[(x_{5}+x_{6})(x_{5} y_{6} -x_{6} y_{5})]]$

putting the values of x's and y's you will get

$C_{x} =15.36$

For Cy

$C_{y} =\frac{1}{6A}[ [(y_{1}+y_{2})(x_{1} y_{2} -x_{2} y_{1})]+ [(y_{2}+y_{3})(x_{2} y_{3} -x_{3} y_{2})]+[(y_{3}+y_{4})(x_{3} y_{4} -x_{4} y_{3})]+[(y_{4}+y_{5})(x_{4} y_{5} -x_{5} y_{4})]+[(y_{5}+y_{6})(x_{5} y_{6} -x_{6} y_{5})]]$

putting the values of x's and y's you will get

$C_{y} =22.55$

So coordinates for the fire station should be (15.36,22.55)

If we have silicon at 300K with 10 microns of p-type doping of 4.48*10^18/cc and 10 microns of n-type doping at 1000 times less

liq [111]

Answer:

The resistance is 24.9 Ω

Explanation:

The resistivity is equal to:

$R=\frac{1}{N_{o}*u*V } =\frac{1}{4.48x10^{15}*1500*106x10^{-19} } =0.93ohm*cm$

The area is:

A = 60 * 60 = 3600 um² = 0.36x10⁻⁴cm²

$w=\sqrt{\frac{2E(V_{o}-V) }{p}(\frac{1}{N_{A} }+\frac{1}{N_{D} })$

If NA is greater, then, the term 1/NA can be neglected, thus the equation:

$w=\sqrt{\frac{2E(V_{o}-V) }{p}(\frac{1}{N_{D} })$

Where

V = 0.44 V

E = 11.68*8.85x10¹⁴ f/cm

$V_{o} =\frac{KT}{p} ln(\frac{N_{A}*N_{D}}{n_{i}^{2} } , if n_{i}=1.5x10^{10}cm^{-3} \\V_{o}=0.02585ln(\frac{4.48x10^{18}*4.48x10^{15} }{(1.5x10^{10})^{2} } )=0.83V$

$w=\sqrt{\frac{2*11.68*8.85x10^{-14}*(0.83-0.44) }{1.6x10^{-19}*4.48x10^{15} } } =3.35x10^{-5} cm=0.335um$

The length is:

L = 10 - 0.335 = 9.665 um

The resistance is:

$Re=\frac{pL}{A} =\frac{0.93*9.665x10^{-4} }{0.36x10^{-4} } =24.9ohm$

A cylindrical resistor element on a circuit board dissipates 0.6 W of power. The resistor is 1.5 cm long, and has a diameter of

Burka [1]

Answer:

a. 51.84Kj

b. 2808.99 W/m^2

c. 11.75%

Explanation:

Amount of heat this resistor dissipates during a 24-hour period

= amount of power dissipated * time

= 0.6 * 24 = 14.4 Watt hour

(Note 3.6Watt hour = 1Kj )

=14.4*3.6 = 51.84Kj

Heat flux = amount of power dissipated/ surface area

surface area = area of the two circular end + area of the curve surface

$=2*\frac{\pi D^{2} }{4} + \pi DL\\=2*\frac{\pi *(\frac{0.4}{100} )^{2} }{4} + \pi *\frac{0.4}{100} *\frac{1.5}{100}$

= 2.136 *10^-4 $m^{2}$

Heat flux = $\frac{0.6}{2.136 * 10^{-4} }$ = 2808.99 $W/m^{2}$

fraction of heat dissipated from the top and bottom surface

$=\frac{\frac{2*\pi D^{2} }{4} }{\frac{2*\pi D^{2}}{4} + \pi DL } \\\\=\\\frac{\frac{2*\pi *(\frac{0.4}{100} )^{2} }{4} }{\frac{2*\pi *(\frac{0.4}{100} )^{2} }{4} +\pi *\frac{0.4}{100} *\frac{1.5}{100} } \\\\=\frac{2.51*10^{-5} }{2.136*10^{-4} } \\\\\= 0.1175$

=11.75%
