The right options are;

1. b. rise

2. b. submarine canyons

Continental rise is the bottom feature of water that is composed of thick sequences of continental substances that coalesced between the continental slope and the deep ocean floor. Continental rises occurs due to three sedimentary processes which are vertical accumulation of biogenic and clastic substances, mass wasting and the deposition from contour currents.

Submarine canyons are deep, narrow steep-sided valleys that emanate from the continental slope and sometimes may extend to the ocean basin floor (continental shelf). The physical appearance of submarine canyons resembles canyons formed by rivers on land.

Identify the type of neuronal cell that detects bright light and provides high-resolution color vision.
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The correct option is b. cones.

Explanation:

Cones and rods are specialized cells, called photoreceptor cells, that are found in the retina and are responsible for our vision.

Cones, allow to the human eye to have a visual acuity (ability of the eye to resolve, transmit sharp images and perceive small details in an object) and provide sensitivity to the color, are more concentrated in the central yellow spot known as the macula.

There are three different types of cones in color reception: "L cones" (sensitive to long wavelength, which is red), "M cones" (sensitive to medium wavelength, which is green) and "S cones" (sensitive to short wavelength, which is blue). Since color perception depends on the activation of these three types of nerve cells, it follows that the visible color can be determined based on three numbers called triestimulus values.

The rods are necessary for the perception of light and darkness and to adapt to night vision, because they are very sensitive to low intensity light. On the contrary, they become completely blind to bright light and, therefore, lack importance with regard to daytime vision or visual acuity.

describe the three steps in urine formation. include a definition of the molecules involved during each step, as well as the pro
kramer
Urine forms as some of the blood plasma spills out, some of these spilled plasma components are taken back up into the blood, and other material is selectively sent out to be added to the urine. In other words, there are three main things happening to form urine. 
glomerular filtration (blood plasma spills out) bullet tubular reabsorption (some items are selectively reabsorbed into the blood) bullet tubular secretion (some blood plasma items are selectively sent out into the tubules)
