Practice Questions

The adequate stimulus for a specific sensory receptor is defined as the

A. Stimulus that produces the most intense sensation
B. Form of energy to which the receptor is most sensitive
C. Minimum stimulus intensity required for detection
D. Only type of energy that can activate the receptor

The adequate stimulus is the specific form of energy (light, mechanical, chemical) to which a receptor is uniquely adapted and most sensitive, having the lowest threshold for activation. It is not the only energy that can activate it (e.g., a hard punch to the eye causes seeing "stars").

75. In structural cytology, the target consequence of introducing an artificial molecule that competitively binds to kinetochores is the

A. Inability of spindle microtubules to attach and segregate chromosomes
B. Complete structural disassembly of the nucleosome octamer cores
C. Spontaneous duplication of telomeric caps without replication loops
D. Hyper-activation of transcription complexes along euchromatin tracks

Blocking the kinetochores prevents microtubule attachment at the centromere, interrupting mitotic checkpoints and halting orderly chromosome separation.
