If you could monitor the activity from the photoreceptors of rods and cones in the retina during a dream, would you expect these

cells to be producing electrical signals? Why?
Biology
1 answer:
loris [4]3 years ago
4 0

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

- Yes, because people's eyes move during sleep, and this stimulates the rods and cones.

- No, because rods and cones only convert light energy into electrical signals.

- No, because rods and cones never produce electrical signals.

- Yes, because the rods and cones are reproducing images that are then sent to the brain.

Answer:

No, because rods and cones only convert light energy into electrical signals.

Explanation:

The rod and cone cells are the photoreceptor cells present on the retina of the eye which receives the physical stimulus in the form of light and then converts the light energy into the electrical energy which is sent to the brain.

When we dream, our remains closed and no light is able to enter the eye as a result of which the rods and cones do not send the signals to the brain.

Thus, the selected options are correct.

What will happen to the concentrations of ATP,NADPH, and sugar when you add paraquat
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Decrease

Explanation:

Paraquat can induce alterations in endoplasmic reticulum that might contribute to the changes in glucose-6-phosphatase activity, resulting in an increase of blood glucose level and/or all the effects can be attributed to a high level of circulating epinephrine produced by paraquat toxicosis. Paraquat induces mitochondrial dysfunction and ATP depletion in brain tissues or cultured cells (54,62). Therefore, our in vivo findings of ATP depletion would be a contributory factor for the observed proteasome dysfunction. The two reactions use carrier molecules to transport the energy from one to the other. The lower energy form, NADP+, picks up a high energy electron and a proton and is converted to NADPH. When NADPH gives up its electron, it is converted back to NADP+

What is it called when molecules move from low to high concentration across plasma membranes?
Semenov [28]

Answer: Osmosis

Explanation: Osmosis is a process in which water move from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration through a selectively permeable membrane. For osmosis to occur, it must be through a selectively permeable membrane. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

Fruit flies have a diploid number of 8 and have a diploid number of 32. In which case will crossing over have greater impact on
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Diploid cells are like daughter cells coming from a mother cell called a haploid cell. So the more daughter cells are born, the greater the chance of getting hybrids and creating more diversity on the genetic races existing. In this case, the answer would have to be honeybees.

lidiya [134]

Answer:

A. Compounds contain fixed ratios of different elements.

Explanation:

Water always has this 2:1 ratio of hydrogen to oxygen. Like water, all compounds consist of a fixed ratio of elements. It doesn't matter how much or how little of a compound there is. It always has the same composition.
