The answer to your question is D) punctuated equilibrium.

The theory of Punctuated Equilibrium states that extremes in the environment cause sudden evolution; a long period of time precedes the sudden evolutionary changes.

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

D. Punctuated Equilibrium

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>According to the theory of punctuated equilibrium organisms are in stasis until a major change causes evolutionary pressures, which will result in a rapid burst of speciation until the stasis is reached again.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Based on this theory, when species occur in a fossil record, then the population will become stable, thus showing little evolutionary change for the geological history.</u></em>
  • <em><u>In this case, based on the theory of punctuated equilibrium all of the oak species in Georgia appeared suddenly from one common ancestor, over a short period of time, due to some extreme environmental changes, and that since that time, they have not changed much.</u></em>

Second-order neurons of ascending pathways that contribute to sensory perception terminate in the ________. Second-order neurons
madam [21]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-Thalamus

Explanation:

The somatosensory pathway is the pathway which sends the receptor generated sensory impulses mostly the temperature and touch to the central nervous system.

The pathway is composed of three types of neurons called primary order neuron, second-order neuron and tertiary order neuron.

The second-order neuron receives the signals from the first-order neurons and carries the signals to the relay part of the brain called thalamus. The thalamus is present in the forebrain region of the brain where it receives, analyses and sends the signals to the different region of the cerebral cortex.

Thus, the thalamus is the correct answer.
