Do planaria exhibit a positive or negative phototaxis to light?
negative
What is phototaxis?
Phototaxis is a behavioral response exhibited by certain organisms in which they move towards or away from a source of light. This movement is often seen in simple organisms like bacteria, algae, and insects as a way to navigate their environment or seek out resources.
Is a behavior in which animals move toward or away from a light source?
Phototaxis is the behavior in which animals move toward (positive phototaxis) or away from (negative phototaxis) a light source. This behavior is commonly observed in various organisms, such as insects, plants, and microorganisms, as they respond to light stimuli for navigation, finding food, or avoiding predators.
A bacterial cell moving toward light would be an example of?
positive phototaxis.
How does Paramecium respond to light?
Paramecium can respond to light by moving towards or away from it through a process called phototaxis. When exposed to light, Paramecium will swim towards the light source (positive phototaxis) or swim away from it (negative phototaxis) depending on the species and environmental conditions.
Dugesia will display phototaxis?
Dugesia will exibit negative phototaxis. Look it up in a zoology book. here is an article as well. http://www.helium.com/items/1079086-the-observation-of-dugesia-in-response-to-light-and-gravity
Are ants harmful in your flower pots?
They can. Some ants engage in symbiotic relationships with some plants on occasion. For the common ant and your average garden flower, ants should not have a positive or negative effect.
Is a positive plus a negative make a positive or a negative?
Positive + Negative = Negative Negative + Negative = Positive Positive + Positive = Positive Negative + Positive = Negative
What is a negative - positive?
Negative * positive = negative Positive * positive = positive Negative * negative = positive
Which insects use phototaxis?
Insects that use phototaxis are moths and cockroaches. Phototaxis means that these insects are attracted to light and will move towards it.
How is dividing integers similar to multiplying integers with the resulting sign?
The rules for the sign (positive or negative) of the result of a multiplication is the same as division. For multiplication: Positive * Positive --> Positive Positive * Negative --> Negative Negative * Positive --> Negative Negative * Negative --> Positive For division: Positive / Positive --> Positive Positive / Negative --> Negative Negative / Positive --> Negative Negative / Negative --> Positive
An oriented movement in response to light or chemical stimuli?
Phototaxis is the oriented movement of a cell or organism in response to light, while chemotaxis is the movement towards or away from a chemical stimulus. These responses help organisms navigate towards beneficial conditions or resources in their environment.
