Her nerves send signals of pain to her nervous system and back to her finger and then she feels the pain.

When piper cuts her finger, sensory neurons in her fingers detect the stimuli (knife to cut the vegetables) and, through a nerve impulse, send this information through connector neurons in the peripheral nervous system to the central nervous system - and eventually to the brain. The information is then processed and then another nerve impulse is sent from her brain to her body so that she can react and respond to cutting her finger (which likely is to move away from the knife). Hope this helps a little.

saveliy_v [14]

Answer: The correct option is c. red, green and blue.

Red, green and blue are primary colors. The theory of trichromatic theory is derived from the color mixing and the color matching explanations. According to the experiment in this theory, the individual person having normal vision of color requires three wavelengths of the primary colors to match with any other color in the visible spectrum. This led to finding of color vision which is based on the activities of three different receptors each having a different sensitivity of the peak. The three receptors are each sensitive towards colors red, blue and green respectively.
