Answer:

Sensory adaptation.

Explanation:

  • An exposure to constant or prolonged stimulus will slowly decrease our response.
  • For example, when we rested our arm or hand on the table then the surface of the table will abruptly feel against our hand.
  • Sensory adaptation helps us in daily life work by decreasing our response to constant stimulus that's why we give our attention to other environmental aspects. If our response will remain constant to prolonged stimulus then we can't detect new or important environmental aspects.

Which kind of exercise targets muscle cells instead of the cardiovascular system to meet the rapid demand for energy?
Fynjy0 [20]

Anaerobic exercises feeds on the energy sources that are stored in the muscles of the body, which is why it is the exercise that targets muscle cells for maximum demand of energy.

How do the three types of colorblindness differ in genotype and phenotype?
vfiekz [6]

Normal colour vision (trichromacy) refers to vision that uses all three types of light cones. People with defected trichromatic vision will be colour blind to some extent and these conditions are called anomalous trichromacy. Three types anomalous trichromacy ( one type of cone perceives light slightly) :

1. Protanomaly – phenotype: reduced sensitivity to red light

2. Deuteranomaly  - phenotype:  reduced sensitivity to green light

3. Tritanomaly – phenotype: reduced sensitivity to blue  

People can also have color blindess as the result of mutation, when loss of function of one cone occurs. This condition is called dichromacy. If there is complete color blindness or monochromacy, the person can’t distinguish any color from grey.

Color blindness is an inherited genetic disorder resulted from mutations on the X chromosome.
