<h2>
Answer</h2>
Stimulus ➡ Touch Receptor ➡ Sensory Nerve cell ➡ Relay nerve cell ➡ Muscle ➡Response
<h2>
Explanation</h2>
- When a body touches a hot or very cold body, a stimulus is generated.
- Touch receptors convert this stimulus into a nerve impulse and transmit it to the sensory neurons located in the spinal cord (CNS) via peripheral nerves.
- The impulse travels across a synapse to relay neurons
- Relay neuron passes impulse across the second synapse to motor neurons.
- Now impulse travels along motor neuron to reach the effector (muscle)
- Muscle contract and hand is withdrawn quickly (Response)
Answer:
For several months, weighing and measuring the pups every week
Explanation:
This is to control variables and keep a measurable set of data that can prove or disprove the theory they had developed, and also to isolate cases that can't be attributed to the experiment they had carried out, like puppies loosing weight due to illnesses, or behavioral factors.
