The center of the retina is a pit called the . the cells that are photoreceptors (detect color) are . in low light conditions, only rods are activated, and visual acuity is best in the of the eye. in bright light conditions, visual acuity is best when light is focused on the of the eye. a single ganglion cell outside of the fovea receives input from rod(s). each cone synapses with ganglion cell(s).

Nteractions between organisms and their environment impact the organism’s overall population. oahu amakihi and kauai amakihi are two closely related species of hawaiian honeycreepers. they have a common ancestor, eat small insects and nectar, and like to nest in koa trees. however, one species is found on the island of oahu, and the other is found on the island of kauai. which concept shows the relationship between oahu amakihi and kauai amakihi?

(drag each tile to the correct identify which questions can be answered by what can be answered by science or which cannot. -is it right or wrong to use genetic engineering to produce new food products? -what are the most common social settings that tend to produce accomplished artists? -if a new gene is added to the genome of a tomato species, will that species be more resistant to insects? -should humans use biotechnology to bring extinct organisms from the fossil record back to life? -do the types of organisms found in the fossil record appear in consistent sequences in different parts of the world? -are michelangelo's paintings more impressive than rembrandt's?

3points hurry! what is the relationship between biotechnology, sharkskin, and disease resistance? bioengineers have developed an artificial sharkskin that does not allow resistant bacteria to grow on it. disease-causing microbes have been genetically modified to keep them from infecting the skins of sharks. scientists have created a device that can be attached to the skins of sharks that dramatically increases their abilities to resist disease. sharkskin produces many chemicals that can be collected and used to create antibiotics.
