There are four types of sensory receptors that respond to one of the four primary stimuli.
Thermoreceptors detect temperature changes in the environment.
Mechanoreceptors detect changes in pressure
Photoreceptors detect the photons composing light
Chemoreceptors detect chemical stimuli and are found inside the body (for example blood vessels). They are also responsible for our sense of taste and smell.
Thus, the correct answer to the question is D. on the tongue and in the nose, to detect taste or odor.
Answer:
The success of an individual organism in passing on its genes to the next generation is a measure of its biological success. A person's genetic information is passed down through the generations through their offspring.
Explanation:
A product of the anterior pituitary gland that causes color changes in it's target cells is melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH) .
Hence the correct answer is option D .
<h3>
What is the pituitary gland ? </h3>
Pituitary is known as the master gland of our body, because it controls and coordinates the development and functions of other endocrine glands. It is found in the base of the brain in a bony cavity called 'sella tursica' and is attached to the hypothalamus.
It has two parts - anterior pituitary ( also known as adenohypophysis) and posterior pituitary ( neurohypophysis).
<h3>
What is anterior pituitary?</h3>
The anterior pituitary has two parts para distalis and pars intermedia. Of this , FSH, LH, TSH, ACTH etc., is released by pars distalis, and the only hormone from pars intermedia is the MSH .
- FSH - Follicle Stimulating Hormone - Stimulates the growth of ovarian follicles for next menstrual cycle.
- LH - Luteinizing Hormone - Induces ovulation of fully mature follicles and maintains corpus luteum.
- TSH - Thyroid Stimulating Hormone - Stimulates secretions of Thyroid gland.
- MSH - Melanocyte stimulating hormone - acts on melanocytes ( cells with melanin, a pigment ) and regulates the pigmentation of the skin.
Hence from the above points ,we can conclude that MSH causes color changes in it's target cells.
So correct answer is option D .

Answer:
Lunar Eclipse: The moon moves in an orbit around Earth, and at the same time, Earth orbits the sun. Sometimes Earth moves between the sun and the moon. When this happens, Earth blocks the sunlight that normally is reflected by the moon. (This sunlight is what causes the moon to shine.)
Explanation:
A greater more than 3 because in a cube there are 6 numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6
Then it is not equal to have 1 greater than a tree has four numbers and less than three has 2. So more likely, Greater than three.
