Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

The process described in the question is bottom-top processing that progresses from the sense organs before moving up to the brain.

Top-down processing is one of the 2 general processes of how sensation and perception of sensory information is being processed in the mind. Top-down processing refers to the process pattern of forming perception based on your cognition, or what the brain already knows or expects. Meaning is formed based on a given context that is already known, as well as from general to specific. It involves the processing of sensory information from the brain down to other sensory organs.  

  • For example, our prior knowledge of the spelling of LOVE would make us pronounce and assume LOV3 as LOVE, when someone writes it that way. Without much thought, we quickly take LOV3 to mean LOVE.

Since the 1970’s, the Earth has been warming. Can this be due to natural, increased solar output? Why or why not?
Margarita [4]
No.

The Sun can influence the Earth’s climate, but it isn’t responsible for the warming trend we’ve seen over the past few decades. We know subtle changes in the Earth’s orbit around the Sun are responsible for the comings and goings of the ice ages. But the warming we’ve seen over the last few decades is too rapid to be linked to changes in Earth’s orbit, and too large to be caused by solar activity.

Describe the structure and function of the main components of a leaf<br><br>​
Reil [10]

Answer: HOPE IT HELPS MARK AS BRAINLIEST . BYE

Explanation:

Leaf, in botany, any usually flattened green outgrowth from the stem of a vascular plant. As the primary sites of photosynthesis, leaves manufacture food for plants, which in turn ultimately nourish and sustain all land animals. Botanically, leaves are an integral part of the stem system, and they are initiated in the apical bud (growing tip of a stem) along with the tissues of the stem itself. Certain organs that are superficially very different from the usual green leaf are formed in the same manner and are actually modified leaves; among these are the sharp spines of cacti, the needles of pines and other conifers, and the scales of an asparagus stalk or a lily bulb.
