wolverine [178]3 years ago
4 0

The options are;

A) biology; theory of relativity

B) geology; theory of continental drift

C) ecology; discovering new elements

D) astronomy; developing quantum mechanics

Answer:

B) geology; theory of continental drift

Explanation:

Looking at the options;

-theory of relativity is a topic in physics originated by Einstein. Thus, it is matched to physics and not biology.

- theory of continental drifts are related to plate tectonics where it explains how continents shift position on Earth's surface. This is a branch of Geography and is thus correctly matched.

- discovering new elements is a topic under chemistry and not ecology. Thus, this is not matched correctly.

-developing quantum mechanics is a topic in physics that deals with the relationship between energy and matterwith respect to atomic and subatomic scale. Thus, it is not well matched.

Therefore correct answer is option B

All of the following describe the molecular/cellular changes that occur in cones in response to light, except one. Choose the ex
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The exception is d) Inactivation of phosphodiesterase

Explanation:

In the presence of light:

a) The membrane potential of the photoreceptors is hyperpolarized, causing a reduction in the amount of neurotransmitter released by the photoreceptor terminal to the postsynaptic neurons

b) Sodium ions accumulate outside the plasma membrane and the receptor potential takes a form

of hyperpolarization 6. This change in membrane potential leads to the closure of calcium channels. The end result is a decrease in the secretion of the neurotransmitter glutamate by the photoreceptors

c) Visual transduction or phototransduction is the process by which a light photon generates a nervous response in the photoreceptors

d) As a consequence of phosphodiesterase activation, degradation of a molecule called cGMP (guanosine cyclic monophosphate) is stimulated
