Answer:
In human vision, the cone visual opsins are grouped into four photoreceptor protein families LWS, SWS1, SWS2, RH2
.
- SWS1: produce pigments sensitive to very short wavelengths, UV-violet, 360-450 nm.
- SWS2: produce pigments sensitive to short wavelengths, blue, 450-495 nm
- RH2: produce pigments sensitive to medium wavelengths, green, 495-560 nm
- LWS: produce pigments sensitive to long wavelengths, yellow-red, 560-770nm.
Explanation:
Photoreceptor proteins are light-sensitive proteins that mediate light-induced signal transduction, thus they are involved in the sensing and response to light in a variety of organisms.
The photoreceptor proteins are classified based on the chemical structure of the chromophores involved, the light absorption and on the protein sequence.
This photoreceptor proteins are located at the cone photoreceptor cells and are responsible of photopic vision.
For scotopic vision, rhodopsin is responsible. Rhodopsins are the visual pigments (visual purple) of the rod photoreceptor cell in the retina. They are responsible of human vision in dim light, as it contains a sensory protein that converts light into an electric signal.
Scientists claim that Bisphenol A when ingested may cause brain problems, behaviour and reproductive development problems in foetus, children and even infants.
Option D.
Explanation:
Bisphenol A was a very common compound to produce polycarbonate bottles. This bottles were very commonly used to produce baby bottles, different beverage containers, different water bottles etc. Until 2010, BPA was allowed as a safe to consume ingredient by WHO but after 2010,they strictly restricted the levels of BPA in food because it has severe ill effects in human body.
Even low amounts of BPA in food can cause hypertension, coronary heart disease, atherosclerosis etc. Although not proven, but BPA is thought to cause cancer. Effects on children and infants are more prominent which can cause problems in development of reproductive structures and brain. Even in adults, the brain problems may lead to change in their behaviors.
Answer:
Adaptations. Organisms have specific structures, functions, and behaviors that enable them to survive the biotic and abiotic conditions of the particular ecosystem in which they live. Organisms possess adaptations to both biotic and abiotic factors in their ecosystem that increase their chance of survival.
Explanation:
Answer:
There are many changes that is ongoing on the earth. Some of the changes are short term changes and the others are long term changes.
These changes are due to the effect of human activities or due to natural processes.
The life of organism depends on these geological processes that keeps on going with time. The growth and development of the organism is hampered by these processes.
Change is the rule of nature and it keeps on changing with time. There has been 5 massive mass extinctions which has affected the life of plant and animal species.
Many of the species have been extincted due to this process.
