Answer: b.pancreas

Explanation:

The pancreas is an organ which is located in the upper abdomen behind the stomach. Insulin is the hormone that is released by the beta cells of the human pancreas. It is released when the glucose levels are increased in the bloodstream. The pancreas detects the rise in the blood glucose levels and hence, secretes insulin. The insulin signals the liver to take up the glucose and convert and store it as glycogen.

On the basis of the above explanation, pancreas tells the body about how much sugar should be in the blood.

Identify the type of neuronal cell that detects bright light and provides high-resolution color vision.
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The correct option is b. cones.

Explanation:

Cones and rods are specialized cells, called photoreceptor cells, that are found in the retina and are responsible for our vision.

Cones, allow to the human eye to have a visual acuity (ability of the eye to resolve, transmit sharp images and perceive small details in an object) and provide sensitivity to the color, are more concentrated in the central yellow spot known as the macula.

There are three different types of cones in color reception: "L cones" (sensitive to long wavelength, which is red), "M cones" (sensitive to medium wavelength, which is green) and "S cones" (sensitive to short wavelength, which is blue). Since color perception depends on the activation of these three types of nerve cells, it follows that the visible color can be determined based on three numbers called triestimulus values.

The rods are necessary for the perception of light and darkness and to adapt to night vision, because they are very sensitive to low intensity light. On the contrary, they become completely blind to bright light and, therefore, lack importance with regard to daytime vision or visual acuity.
