a. the number of receptors b. the thickness of the skin epidermis
Combination of the sense of taste and the sense of smell - A person suffers from cold have no appetite to eat because their sense of smell is weak - The nasal cavity is filled with mucus and prevents chemical substances in food to be detected by the smell receptors
Limitations of sight - Optical illusions - Blind spot
Defects of sight Short-sightedness (myopia) Long-sightedness (Hypermetropia) See near objects clearly but distant objects See distant objects clearly but near objects are blurry are blurry - Eye lens are too thick - Eye lens are too thin - Eyeball are too long - Eyeball are too short [Drawing] [Drawing] Image formed in front of the retina Image formed behind the retina [Drawing] [Drawing] Concave lenses to diverge light Convex lenses to converge light
Astigmatism See part of an object clearer than the rest of the object [Drawing] Caused by the uneven curvature of the cornea or eye lens Can be corrected using cylindrical lenses
Defects of hearing – using hearing aid
Innovation and technology to improve the ability of sensory organs - Magnifying glass - Telescope - Stethoscope - Microscope - Loudspeaker
Stimuli and responses in plants a. Tropism i. Phototropism – the response of plants towards light a. Positive phototropism – shoots of plants b. Negative phototropism – roots of plants ii. Hydrotropism – the response of plants towards water a. Positive hydrotropism – roots of plants b. Negative hydrotropism – shoots of plants iii. Geotropism – the response of plants towards gravity a. Positive geotropism – roots of plants b. Negative geotropism – shoots of plants iv. Thigmotropism – the response of plants towards touch a. Cucumber plants – tendrils b. Morning glory plants – twining stems
(Positive tropism – part of plant grows towards stimulus) (Negative tropism – part of plant grows away from stimulus)
b. Nastic movement - The response of plants towards touch but does not depend on the direction of the stimulus - Occurs more rapidly than tropism - Serves as a defense against its enemies and strong wind - Mimosa sp. – by folding its leaves inwards when touched
Stereoscopic vision Monocular vision
[DRAWING] [DRAWING]
Both eyes at the front of the head Both eyes at the sides of the head A narrow field of vision A wide field of vision To estimate distance accurately To detect the enemies coming from any direction Three dimensional images formed in the Two dimensional images formed in the non- overlapping fields of vision overlapping fields of vision Most predators Most preys
Stereophonic hearing - Hearing using both ears - To determine the direction of the sound accurately
