Stimulus - touch receptors - ___ - ___ - ___ - ___ - response
masha68 [24]
<h2>Answer</h2>

Stimulus ➡ Touch Receptor ➡ Sensory Nerve cell ➡ Relay nerve cell ➡ Muscle ➡Response

<h2>Explanation</h2>
  • When a body touches a hot or very cold body, a stimulus is generated.
  • Touch receptors convert this stimulus into a nerve impulse and transmit it to the sensory neurons located in the spinal cord (CNS)  via peripheral nerves.
  • The impulse travels across a synapse to relay neurons
  • Relay neuron passes impulse across the second synapse to motor neurons.
  • Now impulse travels along motor neuron to reach the effector (muscle)
  • Muscle contract and hand is withdrawn quickly (Response)

Proteins that are functionally less important for the survival of an organism generally evolve _____ more important proteins.
Reika [66]

Proteins that are functionally less important for the survival of an organism generally evolve faster than more important proteins.

Proteins serve as the building blocks for all of life's essential processes. The proteins evolve along with the genes that create them, adding new functionality or features that may potentially result in the development of new species.

The mutation of amino acid-coding nucleotides and the stabilization of novel variations in the population are the two phases required for protein evolution.

The stability of a protein's folded structure, how well it prevents aggregation, and how well it is chaperoned all affect how quickly it evolves. According to the studies, the degree of a protein's expression has a greater influence on its evolutionary rate than does the protein's functional significance.

The occurrence of large or small beak size among seed crackers in the absence of medium sized beaks is an example of
stepladder [879]

Answer:

2) disruptive selection

Explanation:

Disruptive selection is a type of natural selection that acts against less fit heterozygotes. The disruptive selection can be represented by a decrease in the variance of a trait. In this case, the disruptive selection eliminates the medium-sized beaks, thereby favoring the extreme phenotypes in an interbreeding population.

Algae Claim
____ [38]

Answer:

The jellyfish population may have increased because of an increase in phytoplankton. This leads to an increase in   zooplankton; a decrease in walleye pollock, leading to an increase in zooplankton; or an increase in orcas, leading to a  decrease in sea turtles. Sea turtles, being the main predator for keeping the jellyfish population in check.

Also, if there are more red algae, jellyfish polyps have less place to grow. Without it, the polyps can attach itself on every surface.
