Which of the following statements does not describe a vertebrate eye?
a. it contains photoreceptors that are either rod or cone-shaped
b. it acquires images by focusing light on receptor cells
c. it contains cells that are sensitive to either dim light or color
d. it contains many light-sensing columns called ommatidia

The correct answer is: d. it contains many light-sensing columns called ommatidia

Ommatidia are units that form compound eyes of arthropods such as insects, crustaceans and millipedes (these are invertebrates) and make them very sensitive to motion. Ommatidia are composed of photoreceptor cells (visual detection) surrounded by support cells and pigment cells.

The eyes of vertebrates are more complex showing that progressive improvements in the structure of the eye occurred during the evolution.

explanation:

4.) metal

"-the movement of carbon from the nonliving environment into living things and back to the environment

-carbon is the essential component of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates (which make up all organisms)

-carbon exists in air, water, and living organisms

-producers convert carbon dioxide in the atmosphere into carbohydrates during photosynthesis

-bacteria in the atmosphere cycles through the system in filtration units

-in cellular respiration, carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide

-some carbon is stored in limestone (forming one of the largest "carbon sinks" on earth)

-largest carbon reservoir on earth= limestone

-carbon stored in the bodies of organisms as fat, oils, or other molecules may be released into the soil or air when the organism dies

-this may form deposits of coal, oil, or natural gas (fossil fuels, which increased the atmospheric carbon dioxide)

-fossil fuels store carbon left over from bodies of organisms that died millions of years ago

-they are located in the surface of earth, deep within the earth and beneath the ocean floor."
