Why are the senses necessary for behavior?

Biology

Answer:

Stimuli must be sensed in order to respond.

Explanation:

Classical conditioning can be defined as a learning process which typically involves repeatedly pairing two stimuli: conditioned stimulus and unconditioned stimulus.

Simply stated, it is a learning procedure that helps us to understand when a neutral stimulus is paired with a conditioned response.

An example is the process of salivating in response to the aroma of a meal being prepared in the kitchen.

Also, operant conditioning can be defined as an associative learning process which involves reinforcing the strength of a behavior.

Stimulus in biology can be defined as an obvious change in either the chemical or physical structure of an organism' environment (either external or internal). Thus, all living organisms (both animals and plants) respond to changes in their environment and consequently, an appropriate response or reaction is made. Also, stimulus arising from within the organism is known as internal stimulus while those from its environment are known as the external stimulus.

In organisms, the specialized cells that detect stimulus are generally known as sensory receptors while a group of these receptors is referred to as sense organ.

Hence, the senses are necessary for behavior because stimuli must be sensed in order to respond.

What effect would there be on the final daughter cell if the spindle fibers failed to pull a chromosome toward the pole, as in c
allochka39001 [22]

Aneuploidy can result in the final daughter cell if the spindle fibers fail to pull a chromosome toward the pole as in case of non-disjunction.  

Explanation:

Aneuploidy is a condition which arises when one or more chromosome is missing in the final daughter cells.

Non-disjunction refers to the failure of chromosomal or chromatid segregation or separation during cell division. This results in erroneous meiosis or mitosis leading to the formation of final daughter cells or gametes with an extra or missing chromosome. This condition is aneuploidy.  

Failure of separation or segregation of:

  • Homologous chromosomes occur in Anaphase I, affects four daughter cells.
  • Sister chromatids during Anaphase II, affects two daughter cells

This failure of separation leads to aneuploidy chromosomal abnormalities like monosomy, trisomy, etc which can cause diseases like Down’s syndrome, Turner’s syndrome etc.
