Answer:

It is most likely the word elliptical.

Explanation:

Usually the term <em>elliptical </em>refers to the oval-like shape of a substance or path of an object.  The question states, "Planets in our solar system do not revolve around the sun in perfect circles.

Sav [38]

Answer:

Sensory transduction

Explanation:

The term sensory transduction refers to the conversion process where the sensory energy is converted in order to change the potential of a membrane.

In other words, it can defined as the process of energy conversion such that stimulus can be transmitted or received by the sensory receptors and the nervous system may initiate with the sensory receptors.

Transduction takes in all of the five receptors of the body. Thus skin is also one of the receptors and hence conversion of heat energy into impulses takes place with the help of thermo-sensory neuron.
