During photosynthesis, plants take in light energy from the Sun, carbon dioxide from the air, and water through their roots. Oxygen is a product of photosynthesis.
The answer is light dependent
Mitochondria and chloroplasts likely evolved from engulfed prokaryotes that once lived as independent organisms.
(At some point, a eukaryotic cell engulfed an aerobic prokaryote, which then formed an endosymbiotic relationship with the host eukaryote, gradually developing into a mitochondrion. Eukaryotic cells containing mitochondria then engulfed photosynthetic prokaryotes, which evolved to become specialized chloroplast organelles).
These plants colonize habitats, and exclude the native plants and animals. Since they decrease native biodiversity, they arebad for the environment.
Answer:
The correct option is B <em>Pressure-sensitive baroreceptors uses tonic receptors which adapt slowly to the stimulus</em>
Explanation:
a. The thalamus receives stimulus from all of the five senses (sight, smell, taste, hear, touch). FALSE. Olfactory information is not sent to the thalamus for its process. The rest is.
b. Pressure-sensitive baroreceptors uses tonic receptors which adapt slowly to the stimulus. TRUE. Among the different types of tonic receptors, we may find baroreceptors, irritation receptors, tactile receptors, and proprioceptors. Tonic receptors characterize by their slow adaptation to the stimulus. The first discharge is maximal when the stimulus is received and then it progressively decreases. They send a continuous signal to the CNS.
c. The three layers that the retina is made of: photoreceptors, bipolar cells, rod cells. FALSE. There are in fact three layers in the retina: photoreceptors, bipolar cells, and ganglion cell layers. NOT rod cells.
d. The sense of smell uses phasic receptors which continuously fire as long as the stimulus is present. FALSE. Olfactive sense uses phasic receptors, but not continuously. These receptors shoot when they receive the stimulus, and then cease if the stimulus keeps constant.
