A. the polarity of the water molecule because the balloon is negatively charged and the positive hydrogen end of the water molecules are attracted to it

Fofino [41]2 years ago

Answer is A. The polarity of the water molecule

Water is a polar molecule due to an uneven distribution of electron density. Water has a partial negative charge near the oxygen atom and partial positive charge near the hydrogen atoms. Thus, dipole moment is created when there is a charge separation between the molecules. The dipole moment of water is 1.85. Therefore, when the charged balloon is placed close to the stream of water, it cause all the molecules of water to bend towards the balloon which has static charge on it.

The process occurring at the sensory receptors that converts physical energy into coded neural activity that the nervous system
Anika [276]

Answer:

Sensory transduction

Explanation:

The sensory process involves many steps to send the signals from the receptor to the brain.

In this, the step that is involved in the conversion of the physical energy into the electrical signal at the sensory receptor  (in the given case mechanoreceptors) is known as the Sensory transduction.

When the mechanoreceptors get stimulus by the physical force, it opens the mechanical gate of the dendrites which allows the influx of the positive ions. The influx of the positive ions causes depolarization of the membrane which initiates the action potential which is then transmitted to the brain.

Thus,  Sensory transduction is the correct answer.
