OverLord2011 [107]

At diverging plate boundaries, earthquakes occur as the plates pull away from each other. Volcanoes also form as magma rises upward from the underlying mantle along the gap between the two plates. We almost never see these volcanoes, because most of them are located on the sea floor.

Damage to sensory receptor cells would most likely result in ________. I. confusion of visual and auditory input II. inaccurate
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is: None of the above. The accurate answer is: Problem or inability in detecting the sensory information.

Explanation:

  • Sensory receptor cells form the part of the sensory epithelial layer that are present in the form of a lining in all sensory organs.
  • These sensory cells possess some specialised receptor molecules, usually on the surface of the cells, that can sense different types of sensory signals like light, in case of eyes, smell is case of nose, taste in case of tongue and sound in case of ears.
  • Any damage caused to these cells will adversely affect their capability to perceive or receive or detect the sensory signals.
  • Option I is incorrect because sensory cells are not only present in the eyes and ears but also in nose, tongue, skin. The activity of the sensory cells of one organ is independent of the activity of sensory cells of other organs hence, damage to the sensory cells of one organ will not create any confusion in different sensory inputs.
  • Option II is incorrect because integration of all the sensory impulses occur in the brain after the impulse has been received and detected by multiple sensory receptor cells and send to the brain through the sensory neurons.
