Answer : (d) axonal end of one neuron to dendritic end of another neuron. \ Explanation: A synaptic gap composed of SYNAPSE allows an electric impulse to pass from the axon to the dendrite of one neuron to the other.

Answer is (c) Dendrite → cell body → axon → axonal end Explanation: Dendrites take up the stimulus, which are then transmitted to the cyton by the axon. The axonal ends, or terminal branches, are where the stimulus reaches a neuron and is transmitted to another neuron.

Ans : (a) Gustatory receptors detect taste while olfactory receptors detect smell . Explanation: A cell that has a receptor is one that can respond to external stimuli like light, taste, and smell.Example Photoreceptors pick up light. Taste is detected by gustatory receptors. Olfactory receptors pick up on the smell.

 Ayush’s action was voluntary because rushing out of his room was under his conscious control.  The sense organ’s receptors collected the smoke and smell, and they sent messages to the brain. The effector organs are then instructed by the brain to leave the room.

The blow on Anshal’s back would lead to an impairment of cognitive abilities or poor functioning physically. After that, it can also cause disturbance of emotional or behavioural functioning. Cervical damage can lead to tetraplegia.

Various organs contain sensory neurons, which function similarly to the input device in computers in that they sense their surroundings and communicate that to the brain. The Central Processing Unit (CPU) and the human brain are comparable (CPU). The information acquired by the sensory neurons is processed by the brain, which then issues instructions to …

Movement in sensitive plants Movement in our legs The movement of a sensitive plant is an involuntary action to the stimulus (touch). Movement in our legs is a voluntary action. No special tissue is there for the transfer of information There is a complete CNS and PNS system available for information exchange. Plant cells do …

Nervous control Hormonal Control (i) It is made up of nerve impulses between the PNS, CNS, and brain. (i)The endocrine system, which secretes hormones right into the blood, is a part of it. (ii)This place has really quick response times. (ii)This place takes so long to respond. (iii)The actions of nerve impulses are not specific. …

Reflex actions Involuntary actions (i) Quick spontaneous reactions to a stimulus without conscious brain activity (i) Takes place outside of an organism’s conscious awareness (ii) Controlled by spinal cord (ii) Is controlled by the midbrain or medulla oblongata (iii) Extremely rapid and immediate (iii)Slower than usual (iv) Possible to include any muscle or gland (iv)Only …

An organism has a variety of organs. For an organism to survive, these organs must be carefully coordinated and managed. The glands of the endocrine system secrete a variety of fluids into an organism’s body. These hormones are in charge of an organism’s general growth and development. The central nervous system is in charge of …
