5 0

Answer and Explanation:

The octopus is a complex aquatic animal, belonging to a class -of cephalopods. Its body plan has all the organs centralized within a large body cavity. These organisms have eight long limbs, which extend away  from the body cavity; on average they may grow up to 14 feet long.

Octopuses are invertebrates noted for their intelligence; they are capable of adapting to evade predators. They can camouflage by altering their appearance to hide within their environment, produce ink to obscure their environment and allow for their escape. One species produces toxins when attacked -the Australian Blue-Ringed Octopus.

to is when a stimulus successfully stimulates an action potential in its specific neuron. how your brain interprets the message
Xelga [282]

Information about the body and its surroundings is provided through the senses. Olfaction (smell), gustation (taste), equilibrium (balance and body posture), vision, and hearing are the five distinctive senses that only humans possess. We also have broad senses, sometimes known as somatosensation, that can react to stimuli including pressure, temperature, pain, and vibration. Somatosensation includes the sense of limb position used to monitor kinesthesia (limb movement), proprioception (the position of bones, joints, and muscles), and vestibular sensory, which is an organism's sense of spatial direction and balance. Although the sensory systems connected to these senses vary greatly, they all have the same purpose: to cause the nervous system to produce an electrical signal in response to a stimulus, such as light, sound, or body position.

<h3>What is Action potential ?</h3>

When a neuron transfers information away from the cell body and down an axon, it experiences an action potential. The action potential is also referred to as a "spike" or a "impulse" by neuroscientists. A depolarizing current causes an explosion of electrical activity known as the action potential.

Different ions crossing the neuron membrane result in action potentials. The sodium channels first open in response to a stimulus. Because the inside of the neuron is negative compared to the outside and there are much more sodium ions on the inside, sodium ions rush within the cell.

Depolarization, overshoot, and repolarization are the three phases of an action potential.
