Summary Introduction
Introduction: On this Earth, there are millions of species of the animals that are found. The behavior pattern of each species varies according to their needs. Animals move from one place to another place because of the necessity of the food, mate, and appropriate climate.

- For each of the following, match the pattern with its description. Not all terms will be used. Although the eyes of the octopus and vertebrates have evolved entirely independently, each has a retina, cornea, iris, lens, and a fluid-filled interior. These similarities of structure, despite different origins, provide a classic example of .... Insects and birds are far removed from one another, yet at a glance it is difficult to tell the difference between a humming bird and a humming moth. Both are the same in size, and both live off nectar in flowers, and hover in flight. This is a classic example of.... The apple maggot fly once infested the fruit of a native Australian hawthorn tree. In the 1860s some maggot flies began to infest apples. They multiplied rapidly because they were able to make use of an abundant food supply. Now there are two distinct species, one that reproduces when the apples are ripe, and another that continues to infest the native hawthor tree. This is an example…arrow_forwardIn the human visual pathway, after light passes through the cornea, it next (a) stimulates ganglion cells (b) passes through the lens (c) sends signals through the optic nerve (d) depolarizes horizontal cells (e) hyperpolarizes rod cellsarrow_forwardTure or False:(T/F) A bee would detect the odor of the flowers using trichoid sensilla located on the antennae and the olfactory information would be processed in the glomeruli of the deuterocerbrum and incorporated into olfactory learning in the corpora pedunculata of the protocerebrum.(T/F) A bee would monitor and control flight speed using interommatidial hairs and the optomotor response.(T/F) Stresses and strains on the exoskeleton during flight would be monitored by basiconic and coeloconic sensilla located in the wing hinge.arrow_forward
- Would a bee be able to waggle in outer space? Why or why not? If yes, how might the waggle differ?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about sensory systems is NOT true? a. Sensory transduction involves the conversion (by either a direct or indirect mechanism) of a physical or chemical stimulus into changes in membrane potential difference. b. Sensory adaptation plays a role in the ability of organisms to discriminate between important and unimportant information. c. The term "sensory adaptation" refers to the process by which a sensory cell becomes less sensitive, or less responsive, to a continuing source of stimulation. d. In general, a stimulus causes a change in the flow of charged ions across the plasma membrane of a sensory receptor cell. e. The more intense a stimulus is, the greater the peak depolarization of the action potentials fired by the sensory neuron.arrow_forwardWhich statement regarding rods and cones is most accurate? a.) Rods and cones carry signals to the brain so an image can be formed. b.) Rods and cones refract light to focus it on the retina. c.) Rods and cones are photoreceptors, which detect light. d.) Rods and cones monitor the amount of light entering the eye and adjust the size of the pupil.arrow_forward

B) There is no real survival benefit to having direct and periphery vision. C) There is a survival benefit where periphery vision catches sudden movements and direct vision depicts greater detail. D) Having periphery vision is the reason why we see colors, which have survival benefits.arrow_forward29. Which of the following is a correct statement about the cells of the human retina?
