Q

resting potential:

A

doesn’t have to be passing messages all the time
could be making ATP and preparing to divide
doesn’t have to always be electrically active
ready for action potential
-70 milivolts

28
Q

compound eyes

A

have lens and photoreceptors but many little eye units, good for a wide view but its pixelated which makes it easy to see when something moves

Q

cornea

A

clear layer to protect pupil and let light through

33
Q

iris

A

colored part of the eye to adjust amount of light entering

34
Q

lens

A

focus light to photoreceptors in back of the eye

35
Q

retina

A

back of the eye that hold photreceptors

36
Q

fovea

A

where photoreceptors are most densely located in retina

37
Q

rods

A

low wavelength light (dim light), grayscale aspects of vision

38
Q

cones

A

color vision, higher wavelength, mostly active during the day

39
Q

optic nerve

A

a bundle of nerve fibers that carries visual information from the retina at the back of the eye to the brain

40

A

sweet, salty, sour, bitter, savory

44
Q

pain

A

chemicals leak and tell nerves something need to be fixed

actin , calcium

51
Q

endocrine system

A

types of hormones you can make and how cells respond
