The difficulty of reading under dim light conditions can be explained by _____

Biology
1 answer:
Nutka1998 [239]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

the fact that rod functioning predominates during dark adaptation, therefore poor acuity

Explanation:

  • Rods and cones are the photoreceptor cells present in the eye that perform the function of converting the light received into signals that stimulate the biological processes.
  • Out of the rods and cones, the rods are more sensitive and they are so sensitive that they can be activated even under low light conditions.
  • However the cones can be stimulated only under bright light conditions, but the visual acuity is higher for the cones as compared to the rods.
  • <em>Therefore under conditions of dim light, the rods are activated and hence it results in a poor visual acuity and a person experiences difficulty in reading. </em>

If a circle has a diameter of 16 feet, which expression gives its area in square
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The options are unclear but the answer is 8^2π square feet or 64π sqfeet

Explanation:

Area of a circle is denoted by: πr^2 where r is the radius of the circle.

In this question, the diameter was given. The diameter of a circle is twice the radius. Therefore, in order to get the radius, we divide the diameter by 2 i.e. r = d/2

= 16/2 = 8 feet.

Thus, the radius = 8 feet.

Hence, Area of a circle = πr^2

= π × 8^2

= 64π or 8^2π sqfeet.

Which approach to development suggests that there are five levels of the environment that simultaneously influence individuals?
Gnoma [55]
The approach to development that suggests that there are five levels of the environment that simultaneously influence individuals is Bronfenbrenner's bioecological approach.
These five levels include: microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, macrosystem, and chronosystem. All of these levels have an impact on human beings together, and at the same time, and shape people to become the persons they are throughout their lives.
