Question

-Assuming you found that one cue elicited a faster response than the other cue how can you explain this using your knowledge about neurophysiology? This answer is the most important of all conclusion questions and should include, at the least, information about receptors (mechanoreceptors vs. photoreceptors), amount of synapses before entering the brain, and neuronal distance traveled from the relevant processing cortex to the motor cortex responsible for the physical reaction. -Given your answer to the above question, do you think other vertebrates (sharks, geese, horses, etc.) would show the same pattern (a faster reaction time to one cue rather than the other)? -Assuming you found that one cue elicited a faster response than the other cue, how might this be evolutionarily advantageous for vertebrates?

Explanation / Answer

According to the given situation, resposne of different animals vary with their physiology,metabolic processes, type of habit and habitat in which they are living. Nerve impulse also depend on receptors which are respond to the action. Some vertebrates like sharks respond very fast when they saw their food , Geese respond very efficiently in air during flighting than horses. It is the adaptation that's the organism gain over time just to meet the daily need.it is beneficial for the vertebrates as well as for other organism in reference to evolution.
