Answer: A. mechanoreceptor  

Explanation:

A mechanoreceptor is a sensory receptor that detects and responds to stimuli like mechanical pressure, vibration, touch, and sound that a living organism receives from the external or internal environment. These receptors are stimulated as a result of reflex muscle contraction which controls certain adaptive movements like acceleration and deceleration.

igneous rock determined 25 million year old plate movement transported 100,000 meters. How fast is plate moving?
dedylja [7]

Answer:

0.004 m/yr.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the velocity of any object is computed by dividing the travelled distance by the elapsed time, we obtain:

V=\frac{distance}{time}\\\\V=\frac{100,000m}{25,000,000yr}\\\\V=0.004m/yr

It means that the plate moves 0.004 m every year.

Best regards!

Which of these best identifies the genetic code of an organism?
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

A. The number of genes on its chromosomes

Explanation:

The reason why genes are so important is because genes can be transcribed to make mRNAs, and mRNAs can then be translated to make proteins. Proteins are an integral part of life, since they regulate so many processes and functions. Therefore, the number of genes (or lack thereof) in an organism defines how the organism is going to function.
