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.
Answer:
Option-B
Explanation:
Heredity refers to the passing of the traits from the parents to the offsprings or generation and also known as inheritance and Genetic variation is the difference in the genetic material in population which leads to the formation of a variety of traits.
Since the variation in traits is determined by factors (Gregor Mendel) later called "genes" which are passed on to the offsprings, therefore, the branch of biology which studies the pattern of inheritance and variation is known as "Genetics". Gregor Mendel is known as the Father of Genetics.
Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
Answer:
<u><em>Galapagos finches</em></u><u> have various beak sizes that make foraging for food more successful.</u>
Explanation:
Organisms evolve over time due to changes in their genome. These are pontaneous, and occur in DNA at random. These changes are called mutations and form alleles or different forms of a gene.
Over time within a population, the number alleles increase the variation of the population. These variants may confer specific traits within an individual, that may confer a biological advantage.
Thus, the trait may make the organisms more capable of obtaining food, shelter a mate etc. or ensure survival, i.e. they are able to pass on their genes to the next generation.
