Answer:

The correct answer is option A, that is, light intensity and direction.

Explanation:

A photoreceptive organelle witnessed in the motile or flagellated cells of unicellular photosynthetic species like euglenoids and green algae is known as the stigma or the eyespot apparatus. It permits the cells of the organism to detect the intensity and direction of the light and react towards it.  

This assists the organisms to either swim away from the light known as negative phototaxis, or to swim towards it known as positive phototaxis. The eyespots are the basic and the most typical eyes witnessed in nature. The eyespots comprise bright areas or orange and red granules of pigment and photoreceptors.

What makes an immune deficiency disorder so dangerous?
igomit [66]
In an Immune disorder, our own defensive cells, get affected. In that situation, they harm us instead of protect us from any other foreign substance (pathogen), that's why it is so dangerous.

Using the explicit formula, calculate how far the students will be swimming on week 10 using Ernest's schedule.
ivann1987 [24]

Ernest would be swimming at 3.25 units on week 10

The explicit formula is given as:

a_n = a_1 + (n - 1) \times d

Also, we have the following parameters

a_1 =1.0 -- the initial distance

d =0.25 --- the difference between concurrent distances

In week 10, the value of n is 10.

Next, substitute 10 for n in the explicit formula a_n = a_1 + (n - 1) \times d

So, we have:

a_{10} = 1.0 + (10 - 1) \times 0.25

Subtract 1 from 10

a_{10} = 1.0 + 9 \times 0.25

Multiply 9 by 0.25

a_{10} = 1.0 + 2.25

Add 1.0 and 2.25

a_{10} = 3.25

Hence, Ernest would be swimming at 3.25 units on week 10

Break down the terms<br> Biceps<br> Triceps
musickatia [10]
Muscles have their origins (also known as heads) and insertions. Those are places where the muscles are anchored.
A word biceps is made of two Latin words: bi - two and ceps - head. So, biceps is two-headed muscles. It has two origins: coracoid process of the scapula and supraglenoid tubercle.
Similarly, a word triceps is made of three Latin words: tri - three and ceps - head. So, triceps is three-headed muscles. It has three origins: infraglenoid tubercle of scapula, above the radial sulcus, and below the radial sulcus.
