The correct answer is positive fee back.

Positive feedback is termed as the process which appears in a feedback loop whereby small disturbance on a system may leads to increase in magnitude.

There is exponential growth when the side of equilibrium increases in oscillation. Positive feedback is used in digital electronics which moves voltage away from intermediate voltage.

Another example of positive feedback is thermal runaway and its work is to destroy semiconductor junctions. In chemical reaction the work of positive feedback is to increase the rate of reaction.

<span>Positive feedback</span><span>

There are two types of feedback mechanisms
Positive feedback heightens the intensity
Negative feedback lowers the intensity


These all serve to maintain homeostasis. Homeostasis is the state where the internal and external part of the body maintains and establishes balance and equilibrium. </span>

A chemical mutagen that is structurally similar to a nucleotide but has different base-pairing rules is called a ________.
OLga [1]

Answer:

Nucleoside analog

Explanation:

  • Nucleoside analogs are the mutagenic chemicals that have a structure that is similar to the normal bases of the nucleotide and thus can be incorporated in the DNA during the process of replication, however as it has different base-pairing rules than the normal nucleotide base it can lead to mutations.
  • An example of a nucleoside analog is acyclovir which an analog of guanosine.

Light stimuli entering the eye encounter a series of structures while traveling to the brain. Place the structures in the correc
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is "1. cornea 2. retina 3. rods and cones 4. ganglion cells

5. optic nerve 6. thalamus 7. primary visual cortex"

Explanation:

Light must pass a series of structures for the brain being able to interpret the data that comes from the eyes. The order that light stimuli travels from the eye to the brain is as follows:

1. cornea

2. retina

3. rods and cones

4. ganglion cells

5. optic nerve

6. thalamus

7. primary visual cortex

Light enters trough the cornea, the transparent front part of the eye that covers two-thirds of its total optical power; then it goes to the retina which receives the image that could go to the rods or the cones (depending if the light is at low or high levels, respectively). Then, ganglion cells increase the rate of the impulse within the optic nerve, and finally thalamus passes the sensory signal to the primary visual cortex. In this area of the brain, the basic visual features are extracted and interpreted.
