Use the following terms to describe in detail how you visually perceive an object that you can see right now.

Answer: To see for example an apple first light that passes through the pupil is eventually reflected on the pupil, activating neurons in the retina. light waves that were reflected off the apple are changed into neural impulses (transduction) at the point of the retina, where neurons fire in response to light waves. Action potentials are released when neurons fire, sending an electrical charge through the neuron. Excitatory neurotransmitters are released when the action potential reaches the axon terminal, and that these neurotransmitters increase the chances that the next neuron will fire. Of course the neural message from the retina first passes through the thalamus, and then the thalamus routes the impulse elsewhere in the brain.

I hope it helps, Regards.

Explain the process of cross-pollination.
Anna007 [38]

Cross pollination is the transfer of pollen of different species to stigma of different species of plants.

Cross pollination results in healthy, viable and diverse plants.

Mendel observed that traits could either be dominant or recessive.

Blended traits or incomplete dominance is the condition in which dominant allele could not produce its trait alone instead blending with recessive allele takes place giving new phenotype to progeny.

Explanation:

In cross pollination pollen transfer takes place from anthers to stigma. In Mendelian genetics the anthers of the plant was removed because it has both male and female parts on same plant so that self pollination does not take place.

The importance of cross pollination is that it creates diversity in the plant species since the traits having different alleles are combined to form the progeny plant. The offspring are healthier and high quality seeds are found.

Mendel observed that traits are either dominant or recessive in general.  It was observed that when homozygous parents were crossed, the progeny in F1 generation always had dominant trait. The recessive trait only appeared when F1 generation offspring were self pollinate.

Blended traits or incomplete dominance appear when alleles get blended and exhibit the traits in phenotype. The phenotype appeared will not be matching with either parents.

The example is a white coloured flower is crossed with red colour flower the resultant colour of the flower is pink. It shows that dominant allele red is not completely dominant and gets blended with white colour.

All movement are locomotion but not all locomotion are movement​
Vladimir [108]
Some may assume that movement and locomotion are the same, but these two words have certain differences. Movement is known to be the time when a living organism will move from one place to another. Locomotion means that the movement that the living organism did has made changes to the current position of the organism.
