Question

jorge wants to move toward light. once jorge’s eyes detect light, how do his eye cells communica can walk toward the light?
○ a. the eye cells transmit nerve impulses to the brain, which translates the signal and transn muscles.
○ b. the eye cells send a chemical signal to the brain, which interprets the signal and then tra
○ c. the eye cells transmit nerve impulses to the muscle cells in jorge’s legs.

Explanation:

The question involves how eye cells communicate to enable movement toward light. Eye cells (photoreceptors) detect light and generate nerve impulses, which are transmitted to the brain. The brain interprets the signal and sends commands to muscles to initiate movement. Option A describes this process (eye cells → nerve impulses to brain → brain translates → signals to muscles). Option B incorrectly mentions chemical signals as the primary transmission from eye cells to brain (nerve impulses are electrical/chemical but the key is nerve impulse transmission). Option C skips the brain, which is necessary for interpreting the light signal before directing muscles.

Answer:

A. The eye cells transmit nerve impulses to the brain, which translates the signal and transmi muscles. (Note: Assuming the truncated text in option A ends with "transmits to muscles" as context implies.)
