Answer:

<u> C) Each type of sensory receptor responds only to the stimulus that defines the receptor</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

Neurons,  specialized cells within the nervous system. These help with coordinated movement ad communication within the body through the transmission of electrical signals.

Sensory receptors are highly specialized neurons. These are able to detect various chemical and physical stimuli, and are classified by their ability to detect certain stimuli such as:

  • photoreceptors
  • mechanoreceptors
  • chemoreceptors
  • thermoreceptors

Sensory receptors respond to certain intensities of stimuli, instead of one specific stimulus. e.g. Mechanoreceptors within the skin can respond to pressure changes due to touch, but may also detect sound due to specific vibrations.

If color blindness is an X-linked recessive trait, what genotype in a father and a mother would be predicted to produce a 1:1 ra
Likurg_2 [28]
The genotype would be X'Y for the father (he would be colorblind)
The genotype would be X'X for the mother (she would be a carrier)
The offspring would be X'X' _ X'X_ X'Y_ XY
The ratio would be 1:1 normal to colorblind

Mendel knew that the variations in the offspring generations resulted from his experiments because he
sasho [114]

Mendel was able to attribute the variation observed in the offspring of his experiment to the controlled fertilization process.

Mendel was able to control pollination and, thus, the fertilization process in the pea plants used for his experiment.

Mendel was able to effectively predict the outcome with self-pollination or cross-pollination with different results coming from each. Thus, he logically concluded that the variation observed in the offspring of his crosses is due to the fact that he controlled the fertilization process.
