Which of the following statements does NOT describe a vertebrate eye?

Biology
1 answer:
Scrat [10]3 years ago
6 0

The correct answer is: d. it contains many light-sensing columns called ommatidia

Ommatidia are units that form compound eyes of arthropods such as insects, crustaceans and millipedes (these are invertebrates) and make them very sensitive to motion. Ommatidia are composed of photoreceptor cells (visual detection) surrounded by support cells and pigment cells.

The eyes of vertebrates are more complex showing that progressive improvements in the structure of the eye occurred during the evolution.

NeTakaya

The natural process by which the ozone layer get depleted are sun spots and atmospheric winds. The volcanic eruptions are also responsible for the depletion of the ozone layer.

The thinning of the ozone layer, which is present in the upper atmosphere is called ozone layer depletion. These natural processes causes and some chemicals compounds releases chlorine and bromine, which in exposure of high ultraviolet light causes the depletion of ozone.

The ozone layer found in the stratosphere of the earth atmosphere. This region protects the earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation of the sun. It has potential to absorb around 99% of the harmful ultraviolet radiation.

The main causes of ozone depletion are chloroflorocarbons, carbon tetrachloride, methylbromide. The natural processes does not cause more that 1 to 2 % of the ozone depletion.

Based on the anatomic and physiological differences between an infant and an​ adult, which finding would suggest respiratory dis
Eva8 [605]

Answer :

Surfactant deficiency due to undeveloped lungs (in premature infants)  suggest respiratory distress in an​ infant, but would be less likely to be observed in an​ adult beacuse in adults , lungs are fully developed and lack of surfactant is less.

Explanation:

Respiratory distress syndrome is a type of neonatal disease of respiration ,caused by deficiency of the surfactant produced by type II alveolar cells in the lungs most commonly in premature infants.

Normally , the lungs of the fetus start the formation of the surfactant during the third trimester (26 weeks through labor and delivery ) but in the premature infants , the lungs are not totally developed , hence lack of surfactant production results in the respiratory distress syndrome charactarized by inflammation of the airways due to the lack of the surface tension lowring effect of the surfactant.

A lizard warms itself by lying on a warm rock. What is the main way thermal energy is transferred to the lizard from the rock?
trapecia [35]

Answer: The main way the thermal energy is transferred from the rock to the lizard is by conduction.

The lizard stretches out and warms itself by lying on a warm rock. The rock becomes warm as the sun transfers its thermal energy by radiation to the rock. The thermal energy to the lizard by the rock is transferred by direct contact through conduction. The air above the rock and the lizard also gets heated up and the heat is transferred through convection.
