<span>The Antarctic Circle has 24 hours of daylight around the summer solstice. In the southern hemisphere this would be around December 21.
When energy is transferred to air the particles of air move faster. Adding energy to molecules makes them move faster and air is no exception.</span>
Answer:
In human vision, the cone visual opsins are grouped into four photoreceptor protein families LWS, SWS1, SWS2, RH2
.
- SWS1: produce pigments sensitive to very short wavelengths, UV-violet, 360-450 nm.
- SWS2: produce pigments sensitive to short wavelengths, blue, 450-495 nm
- RH2: produce pigments sensitive to medium wavelengths, green, 495-560 nm
- LWS: produce pigments sensitive to long wavelengths, yellow-red, 560-770nm.
Explanation:
Photoreceptor proteins are light-sensitive proteins that mediate light-induced signal transduction, thus they are involved in the sensing and response to light in a variety of organisms.
The photoreceptor proteins are classified based on the chemical structure of the chromophores involved, the light absorption and on the protein sequence.
This photoreceptor proteins are located at the cone photoreceptor cells and are responsible of photopic vision.
For scotopic vision, rhodopsin is responsible. Rhodopsins are the visual pigments (visual purple) of the rod photoreceptor cell in the retina. They are responsible of human vision in dim light, as it contains a sensory protein that converts light into an electric signal.
Explanation:
Definition of monocot
: a chiefly herbaceous angiospermous plant (such as a grass, lily, or palm) having an embryo with a single cotyledon, usually parallel-veined leaves, and floral organs arranged in multiples of three : monocotyledon Monocots account for a quarter of all flowering plants.
