Answer: B) are excited by light that falls in the center of their receptive field.

Explanation:

There are two types of bipolar cells present in the retina which are differentiated on the way the centres of their receptive fields respond to light. The names of bipolar cells are ON-centre and OFF-centre.

If a light fall at the centre of the receptive field of a bipolar cell, it will experience an exciting effect on that cell, resulting in it being depolarized, it is an ON-center cell.

Hence, the correct option is B.

The height of wind formed waves depends on what three things?
Ganezh [65]
The height wind waves or waves generated by the wind are surface waves that occur on the surface of oceans, lakes, rivers, seas and canals etc. Waves can travel thousands of miles before reaching land. They range in size from small ripples to over 100 foot high. They are dependent on the following three things:
1. Wind speed - the height of waves is dependent on the speed of the wind. The faster the wind, the higher the waves and vice versa. 2. Wind direction - the height of waves is dependent on  whether the wind is blowing offshore or onshore. Offshore winds blow from the land onto the sea so tend to cause bigger waves3. Storm winds in a cyclone or hurricane. These winds travel in circles around the eye of the storm and are usually very high in intensity. Depending on the intensity of the wind and the speed at which the wind is travelling, the wave height will differ.

Which of the following is TRUE about this reaction?
hoa [83]

The right answer is C

This process is called anaerobic respiration. It doesn't need dioxygen to occur (it can happen with or without O2).

Anaerobic respiration is a mechanism in which electrons pass through a chain of transporters whose final acceptor is a mineral substance other than oxygen, unlike aerobic respiration where the final acceptor is dioxygen. The final acceptor may be the nitrate ion (as in the case of Pseudomonas), carbon dioxyde or the sulfate ion.

Some bacteria (Pseudomonas) are able, anaerobically, to reduce nitrates to nitrites and then, depending on the case, to dinitrogen (with the enzyme Nitrate reductase A).

NO3- ==> NO2- ==> N2.
