How does the amount of a dolphin's brain dedicated to visual sensing compare to the amount dedicated to sound processing

Biology
1 answer:
Alexeev081 [22]3 years ago
8 0
I think in Dolphins, the visual sensing is ten times less than sound processing. Most dolphin species have a very sharp vision in and out of the water because the eyes can move independently which is enhanced by the curvature of the eyeball. They have a visual range of 180 degrees seeing forward, backward and sideways. They have no external ears, but they have small holes on each side of the head which conduct to the inner ear. They have 2 to 3 times more cells in the ear than humans, and therefore they can detect low frequency and high frequency sound waves as well as the tones of sounds.

Predict the effects of the following types of gene mutations on the protein encoded by that gene (your answer can be just a few
o-na [289]

Answer:

Nonsense mutation: it causes a premature stop codon, so the protein cannot be fully synthesized.

Missense mutation: it causes change on the aminoacid encoded, so it can cause a change in the protein structure if the new aminoacid doesn't have the same chemichal properties as the original.

Synonymous (silent) mutation: it causes no change, the same aminoacid is encoded.

Single nucleotide insertion or deletion: changes the entire structure of the protein because it shifts the reading frame.

Three nucleotide deletion: one aminoacid will no longer be part of the protein, if this aminoacid was located, for example, on the active site of an enzyme, the protein could lose its function.

Chromosomal translocation: it can break a gene in two, causing the protein to no longer be able to be synthesized, or it can change the transcription regulation because it is now under the effect of other regulating sites that result in a different transcription pattern.

A species that has a normal resting systolic blood pressure of >260 mm hg. what is a reasonable conclusion based on this info
Kipish [7]

The answer is B. This the systolic pressure of a giraffe in comparison to that of a human that is 100 mm Hg. This high blood pressure ensures that the giraffe maintains 100 mmHg in the brain. Since a high BP impairs gas exchange and increases transpulmonary filtration, the pulmonary circulation must be separated. Therefore, in the giraffe, there is a relatively great difference between the right ventricular and left ventricular maximal rates of pressure ascent, the left ventricular rate of ascent being 5 times that calculated for the right ventricle.
