Answer 5

transduction of chemical impulses in the sensory receptors

Question 6

once the message has been received by the receptor, where will it move to?

Answer 6

control center or our brain

Question 7

before proceeding to the brain, what must we have?

Answer 7

Answer 15

negative

Question 16

This type of tropism where the movement of a plant in response to water

Answer 16

hydrotropism

Question 17

this kind of hydrotropism where roots grow toward the water

Answer 17

positive

Question 18

this kind of hydrotropism is where the shoots grow away from the water

Answer 18

negative

Question 19

why do the shoots move away from the water?

Answer 19

because it does not collect water but only collects sunlight.
