Answer:

Baroreceptors:

Baroreceptors are the type of mechanical receptors. These receptors are located in the carotid sinus and become active in response to the change in the pressure in the heart. They have the ability to sense the information and relay it to the brain.

Chemoreceptors:

Chemoreceptors area also known as chemo sensors as they have the ability to detect the change in the chemical substance of the body. These receptors are present on the taste buds. They have the ability to generate the action potential and relay information.

Answer:

Galapagos finches have various beak sizes that make foraging for food more successful.

Explanation:

Organisms evolve over time due to changes in their genome. These are pontaneous, and occur in DNA at random. These changes are called mutations and form alleles or different forms of a gene.

Over time within a population, the number alleles increase the variation of the population. These variants may confer specific traits within an individual, that may confer a biological advantage.

Thus, the trait may make the organisms more capable of obtaining food, shelter a mate etc. or ensure survival, i.e. they are able to pass on their genes to the next generation.

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

The answer is: Receptor A because the ligand concentration is greater than the Kd.

Explanation:

Receptor A because the ligand concentration is greater than the Kd., because the conformation of a receptor protein composes the functional state. Ligands include substrates, inhibitors, activators, and neurotransmitters. So, Affinity is a measure of the strength of attraction between a receptor and its ligand.
