The behavior varies with individual as it is specific to the organism. An organism might respond to the stimuli say in a negative way.

Svetlanka [38]
<h2>Neural crest </h2>

Explanation:

The neural crest likely forms: neurons and glia of the peripheral nervous system

  • The neural crest are bilaterally paired strips of cells arising in the ectoderm at the margins of the neural tube
  • In the body region, neural crest cells also contribute the peripheral nervous system (both neurons and glia) consisting of sensory ganglia (dorsal root ganglia), sympathetic and parasympathetic ganglia and neural plexuses within specific tissues/organs
  • The nervous system is made up of specialized cells which includes nerve cells (or neurons) and glial cells (or glia)
  • Neurons are the basic functional units of the nervous system, and they generate electrical signals called action potentials, which allow them to quickly transmit information over long distances
  • Glia are also essential to nervous system function, but they work mostly by supporting the neurons

Which characteristic differentiates amphibians from reptiles?
Stells [14]

Option D – amphibians may use their skin for gas exchange is the characteristic feature of amphibians that differs from reptiles.

Explanation:

The amphibian skin is moist, thin and marbled and supplied by blood vessels running on its surface. The moisture present in the skin dissolves the oxygen present in its surrounding which is absorbed by the blood vessels. Special glands help the amphibians to keep the skin moist.

The very thick and tough scales present on the reptiles prevent them to absorb oxygen through their skin. Hence, they breathe and respire through their lungs.

Amphibians have three-chambered heart. They do not develop amniotic eggs. Adult amphibians although spend much time on land, they breed only in water due to the absence of amniotic sac .
