Answer:

The correct answer is : The opponent process theory

Explanation:

The opponent process theory states that one color of the color pair dominant over the other color and suppresses it. German physiologist Ewald Hering proposed it for the first time in late 18th century.

The opponent process theory of color vision suggests that our ability to perceive color is controlled by three receptor complexes with opposing actions. According to this theory the human eye perceive color is regulated by the 3 antagonist or opposing systems or channels in the eye.

For example, when red color hits the specific region of cones it activates the specific bipolar cells but when the cones stroked by the green color the bipolar cells are inhibited due to the members of different color channel or pair.

Thus, the correct answer is : The opponent process theory

Why do living cells need water?
drek231 [11]
Water is an essential to constituent of the protoplasm of living cells because it is directly involved in countless biochemical reactions like photosynthesis and respiration. Without it cells couldn’t move waste and by products, take in nutrients, perform intracellular transportation, functioning and signaling.

1. Suppose you go to the beach in the morning on a sunny summer day. Explain the rate at which thermal energy is absorbed by the
rodikova [14]

Answer:

1. During the day, the sun heats up both the ocean surface and the land. Water is a good absorber of the energy from the sun. The land absorbs much of the sun’s energy as well. However, water heats up much more slowly than land and so the air above the land will be warmer compared to the air over the ocean.

2.The air over the ocean is now warmer than the air over the land. The land loses heat quickly after the sun goes down and the air above it cools too. This can be compared to a blacktop road. During the day, the blacktop road heats up and becomes very hot to walk on. At night, however, the blacktop has given up the added heat and is cool to the touch. The ocean, however, is able to hold onto this heat after the sun sets and not lose it as easily. This causes the low surface pressure to shift to over the ocean during the night and the high surface pressure to move over the land. This causes a small temperature gradient between the ocean surface and the nearby land at night and the wind will blow from the land to the ocean creating the land breeze.

3. The sand should both heat and cool faster than the water. This is because water has a higher specific heat ca- pacity than sand – meaning that it takes a lot of heat, or energy, to raise the temperature of water one degree, whereas it takes comparatively little energy to change the temperature of sand by one degree.
