AfilCa [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Pigmentation of the skin results from the accumulation of melanin-containing melanosomes in the basal layer of the epidermis. Differences in skin pigmentation result both from the relative ratio of eumelanin (brown–black) to pheomelanin (yellow–red), as well as the number of melanosomes within melanocytes.

Skin cells will produce more melanin, replacing what has been lost and increasing the percentage of melanin in the skin. This melanin has two effects, acting as a barrier to protect the skin from further damage, and darkening the natural color of the skin.

PLEASE HELP! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST. Describe the contribution of photosynthesis and cellular respiration to the exchange of carbo
balu736 [363]

Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are essential to the carbon cycle because cellular respiration involves the intake of oxygen o2 and the exhale of carbon-dioxide co2 into the atmosphere. Where photosynthesis uses the carbon dioxide and water to create oxygen and sugars through energy to repeat the cycle. Respiration in general is a process where carbohydrates are turned into dihydrogen monoxide or water and co2(carbon dioxide). Living organisms together throughout the biosphere and atmosphere work together to continue this because carbon itself is an organic substance.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

<u> C) Each type of sensory receptor responds only to the stimulus that defines the receptor</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

Neurons,  specialized cells within the nervous system. These help with coordinated movement ad communication within the body through the transmission of electrical signals.

Sensory receptors are highly specialized neurons. These are able to detect various chemical and physical stimuli, and are classified by their ability to detect certain stimuli such as:

  • photoreceptors
  • mechanoreceptors
  • chemoreceptors
  • thermoreceptors

Sensory receptors respond to certain intensities of stimuli, instead of one specific stimulus. e.g. Mechanoreceptors within the skin can respond to pressure changes due to touch, but may also detect sound due to specific vibrations.
