Answer:

Sensory transduction

Explanation:

The sensory process involves many steps to send the signals from the receptor to the brain.

In this, the step that is involved in the conversion of the physical energy into the electrical signal at the sensory receptor  (in the given case mechanoreceptors) is known as the Sensory transduction.

When the mechanoreceptors get stimulus by the physical force, it opens the mechanical gate of the dendrites which allows the influx of the positive ions. The influx of the positive ions causes depolarization of the membrane which initiates the action potential which is then transmitted to the brain.

Thus,  Sensory transduction is the correct answer.

how does fossil evidence of forests and freshwater organisms in Antarctica show that the climate there was warmer in the past
noname [10]
The fossil record of Antarctica shows the presence of tropical plants, such as one particular species related to the present day breadfruit. Most plants cannot survive in prolonged temperatures of less than 6 degrees Celsius. Antarctica is freezing all year round and could only have supported tropical and sub tropical plants if it was once much closer to the equator.
The presence of fresh water species also suggest that the continent was closer to the equator. Antarctica is frozen solid with a thick ice sheet.....rivers would be frozen solid all year round or would be limited to water movement under glaciers that melt as a result of pressure and friction. This environment is not suitable to support large fresh water organisms.

Which statement gives an example of how the use of resources has changed?
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Option D. Car companies have developed hybrid cars.​

Explanation:

Nowadays car companies have developed hybrid cars.​ In hybrid cars, the cars are moved by using electric energy instead of fossil fuels. Hybrid cars uses batteries which can be charged by electricity and this store electricity is used to run cars. These types of cars reduce carbondioxide emissions and decrease occurs in air pollution.

kirill115 [55]

Ans.

HD (Huntington's disease) is a genetic neurological disorder that occurs due to damage and death of brain  cells. it is caused by an autosomal dominant mutation in HTT (huntingtin) gene, having a trinucleotide repeat section that makes HTT protein.

The mutation leads to an increase in this nucleotide repeat count, associated with formation of altered or mutated huntingtin protein. These altered proteins show deleterious affect on brain cells and result in Huntington's disease.

Thus, the correct answer is 'option A). a mutated gene.'
