The steps are:

1. The eye cells (photoreceptors) receive light signal.

2. Transduction of light to a neural signal (nerve impulse)

3. Transmission of nerve impulses to the brain via optic nerve (afferent nerve)

4. Brain translates the signal  

5. Nerve impulses is transmitted from the brain to the muscles via efferent nerves.

The movement of H+ through the ATP synthase is best described as an example of __________. The movement of H+ through the ATP sy
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Facilitated diffusion

Explanation:

Oxidative phosphorylation, involving the Electron transport chain and Chemiosmosis is the third stage of cellular respiration. The main purpose of the ETC is to build an electrochemical (electrical and concentration) gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. It does this by using energy to pump protons (H+ ions) from the matrix to the inter-membrane space of the mitochondria.

Facilitated diffusion, also known as passive transport through channels, is a form of facilitated transport involving a passive movement of molecules along their concentration gradient, through channels called membrane proteins.

During Chemiosmosis of Oxidative phosphorylation, protons (H+) flow back down their concentration gradient (from inter-membrane space to matrix) due to the chemiosmotic gradient that has been formed in ETC. However, hydrogen ions (H+) cannot pass through the inner mitochondrial membrane except through an enzyme (protein) found in the inner mitochondrial membrane called ATP synthase. This protein acts as a machine powered by the force of the H+ diffusing through it, down an electrochemical gradient. This movement of H+ via ATP synthase further catalyzes the conversion of ADP to ATP.

It is an example of facilitated diffusion because H+ ions are diffusing across the inner mitochondrial membrane (from inter-membrane space to matrix) via a protein channel or membrane protein called ATP synthase.

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Over the last century, the average temperature on the surface of the Earth has increased by about 1.0 degrees F.   The greatest impact is the droughts that my state is constantly in. I believe that we had a great part in global climate change. How I think that we have is all the air pollution and not taking care of out earth the way we should.  How I think that we can fix this is if we start powering our home with more solar. We can also reduce the amount of water that we use.

A woman with normal vision has a son. The woman’s maternal grandfather is color-blind. What is the probability that the son is c
Reptile [31]

Answer:

= \frac{1}{4}

Explanation:

Given that the woman’s maternal grandfather is color-blind, then it is possible that the woman is a carrier of color-blind allele.

Then probability that the woman is a carrier of color-blind allele is = \frac{1}{2}  

So if a carrier woman cross with a normal man

Let say the gene of the carrier woman is: XX^c

and the normal man = XY

so if we have a cross between  XY and XX^c; we have:

                     X                     Y

X                   XX                 XY

X^c                 XX^c                 X^cY

we can see the offspring to be :

XX =normal unaffected female

XY = normal unaffected male

XX^c = carrier female for color-blind

X^cY = carrier male for color-bind

Then probability that of  inheriting defective allele = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}

Let's not forget that the probability that the woman is a carrier of color-blind allele is = \frac{1}{2}  

∴  the probability that the son is colorblind = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{2}

= \frac{1}{4}
