Communication

Communication is a method of transferring information between two persons or organisms. Communication is possible using mutually understood behaviors such as signs, symbols, or language. In the year 1980, S. F. Scudder proposed communication theory. According to his ideas, all living beings on the earth communicate, but the methods of communication differ. Communication skills are now part of soft skills.

Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/pupillary) to learn about the pupillary reflexes. The pupillary light reflex involves sensory input through the optic nerve and motor response through the oculomotor nerve to the ciliary ganglion, which projects to the circular fibers of the iris. As shown in this short animation, pupils will constrict to limit the amount of light falling on the retina under bright lighting conditions. What constitutes the afferent and efferent branches of the competing reflex (dilation)?
Very short pulses of high-intensity laserbeams are used to repair detached portions of the retina of the eye. Thebrief pulses of energy absorbed by the retina weld the detached portionsback into place. In one such procedure, a laser beam has a wavelengthof 810 nm and delivers 250 mW of power spread over a circularspot 510 mm in diameter. The vitreous humor (the transparent fluid thatfills most of the eye) has an index of refraction of 1.34. If the laser pulses are each 1.50 ms long, how much energy is delivered to the retina with each pulse?
