Answer:

touch, sight, hearing, smell, taste

Explanation:

Touch is thought to be the first sense that humans develop, according to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. Touch consists of several distinct sensations communicated to the brain through specialized neurons in the skin. Pressure, temperature, light touch, vibration, pain and other sensations are all part of the touch sense and are all attributed to different receptors in the skin.

Sight, or perceiving things through the eyes, is a complex process. First, light reflects off an object to the eye. The transparent outer layer of the eye called the cornea bends the light that passes through the hole of the pupil. The iris (which is the colored part of the eye) works like the shutter of a camera, retracting to shut out light or opening wider to let in more light.

hearing sense works via the complex labyrinth that is the human ear. Sound is funneled through the external ear and piped into the external auditory canal. Then, sound waves reach the tympanic membrane, or eardrum. This is a thin sheet of connective tissue that vibrates when sound waves strike it.

Humans may be able to smell over 1 trillion scents, according to researchers. They do this with the olfactory cleft, which is found on the roof of the nasal cavity, next to the "smelling" part of the brain, the olfactory bulb and fossa.

The gustatory sense is usually broken down into the perception of four different tastes: salty, sweet, sour and bitter. There is also a fifth taste, defined as umami or savory. There may be many other flavors that have not yet been discovered. Also, spicy is not a taste.

How can gel electrophoresis be used to help illegal poaching of great white sharks?
statuscvo [17]

Explanation:

Gel electrophoresis is one simple and cheap laboratory technique used in profiling. In this case, it can be used to identify Great White Sharks using their proteins or DNA. This way, even if the fish is completely mutilated into the meat, the species can still be identified helping policies to be enforced.

DNA or proteins of a sample of suspected meat is processed and passed through gel electrophoresis. The bands that form are then compared with a standard to check if the bands match. A match indicates that the meat is from a Great White Shark.
