<span>The correct answer is cGMP.</span> 
 <span>cGMP, during the dark (when there are no stimulations of photoreceptor cells), reaches high intracellular levels. When the light stimulation occurs cGMP levels decrease because it is converted to GMP by phosphodiesterase. Phosphodiesterase is activated by transducin which is activated by excited rhodopsin (contains photopigment).</span>  
<span>
Low levels of cGMP block the cGMP gated ion channels and that prevents the entry of Na and Ca. Because of that membranes becomes more negative, hyperpolarization occurs and this creates a signal for the next cell.</span>

icang [17]

The study of fossils shows that the eukaryotic cells have been evolved from the prokaryotic cells. The endosymbiotic theory has been used to study the evolution of eukaryotic cells.

The endosymbiotic theory states that:

  • Endosymbiotic theory is also referred to as the theory of symbiogenesis. The theory explains the evolution of eukaryotic cells from prokaryotic cells.

  • The theory explains the presence of chloroplasts and mitochondria, and how these organelles form the eukaryotic cells. The theory explains the origin of mitochondria in animal cells and chloroplasts in plant cells.

Thus, the endosymbiotic theory defines the development of eukaryotic cells from the prokaryotic cells.

To know more about endosymbiotic theory, refer to the following link:
