Answer:

Mechanoreceptors

Explanation:

Mechanoreceptor is a type of sensory receptor that responds against the mechanical pressure. These receptors are present on the hair, skin and tactile corpuscles.

Mechanoreceptors may responds against the change in pressure, detects different sounds (hearing), touch and can sense the equillibrium. These receptors transfer the mechanical information into electrical signals. Mechanoreceptors contain sensory neurons that can respond towards the external stimuli.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Convergent Evolution

Explanation:

Convergent evolution is the development of similar traits, across many lineages by plants and animals who originally do not have these traits but developed them because of the biome that they find themselves. Carnivorous plants are examples of living things that have undergone carnivorous evolution.

Plants lacking in Nitrogen have undergone carnivorous evolution for up to seven lineages. Sundews for instance have developed flypaper traps, a carnivorous property that helps them trap insects that they eventually digest.

The distribution of melanosomes in cells is tightly regulated in animals that rapidly change color. dark-colored cells have mela
kipiarov [429]

Microtubules originate on the centre of the cell taking the positive end to the periphery of the cell, while the negative end remains turned to the centre of the cell. The melanosomes move along these microtubules using motor proteins desiganted kinesins and dyneins. The kinesins are responsible for moving the melanosomes to the positive end of the microtubule (periphery of the cell) generating dark-colored cells, whereas dyneins move the melanosomes to the negative end of the microtubule (centre of the cell) generating light-colored cells.
