Answer- B: thermoreceptors and mechanoreceptors.

Explanation: Correct on Edgenuity 2020.

Explanation:

The thermoreceptors in Ore’s skin detect low blood temperatures in the skin blood vessels due to the loss of heat from the skin to the cold environment. The receptors send signals to the brain, and the brain sends motor signals to the muscles (including those of the fist) to   react to the stimuli. This is why Ore clenches his fists to reduce heat loss.

However, as his clenched fist gets tighter the mechanoreceptors in the skin become depolarised when the signal (the pressure) surpasses the required threshold.  This sends a signal to the brain and the brain responds by sending a motor signal to the fist muscle so Ore relaxes the fist a bit and this softens the clenching.

The graph below shows the radioactive decay of a material whose half life is 25 years.
yawa3891 [41]
The half life is the time taken for the amount of a substance to become half of its original value. If we take the initial value to be 30 on the y-axis, the half of 30 is 15. We check the time at which the substance has reduced to 15 atoms and this is about 40 seconds. <span>40 seconds therefore, is your answer.</span>

Explain the process by which Amoeba takes its food from the outside to inside the body​
Dovator [93]

Explanation:

Feeding And Digestion In Amoeba

Initially, it pushes out its pseudopodia so that it can encircle the food. After this, it engulfs the food, thus forming a bag-like structure called food vacuole. The process is known as “phagocytosis”. ... Well, the excess food gets stored in the form of glycogen as well as lipids.
