A reflex action may defined as an instantaneous and involuntary action in response to an environmental stimulus. The reflex arcs (neural pathways) are responsible for the functioning of reflex actions as they act on impulses before these impulses reach the brain.  

Corneal reflex or blink reflex is an example of reflex action that involves blinking of eyelids due to corneal stimulation, such as by a foreign body, intense light, or bu touching) to protect eye.  

Thus, the correct answer is option B). 'blinking when light is flashed in the eyes.'

Purple flower color is dominant over white flower color in peas. suppose two white flowered pea plants are crossed and produce 1
kkurt [141]
<span>Since purple is dominant over white, it is fair to say that white is recessive. The crossing over of two white plants suggest that the parents are both homozygous recessive. Crossing over of 2 homozygous recessive white plants would produce progeny. In the production of 1000 offspring by two white plants, all of the1000 progeny would be white as well.</span>

Considering the ATP cycle, which of the following would have the most potential energy to perform work for cell activities? A. A
Mumz [18]

Answer:

ATP

Explanation:

We are well aware of the fact that ATP is considered to be the energy currency of the cell. If we talk about cell activities it needs an energy input. No doubt that H+ ions play an important role in electron transport chain step of the production of ATP, but the ultimate product which is used by the cell is ATP.

AMP and ADP are also energy sources but they contain less amount of energy as compared to ADP because in ATP there are three phosphate bonds and each bond upon breakage releases almost 7.3 kj/mol of energy. So it definitely will be more in ATP as compared to ADP and AMP.


Hope t help!
