Question
Chapter 34, Problem 4P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The difference in the speed of sensation of the sound by ears should be compared.
The working of the ear to determine the time resolution should be determined.
Whether the 7TM G proteins are capable of efficient time resolution of hearing should be determined.
Concept introduction:
The ears are those organs which help in detecting sound. Ears have several regions which contain many receptors that can detect the sound waves and frequencies and provide information to the nervous system for proper identification of the sound.

- Many odorant molecules are highly hydrophobic and concentrate within the olfactory epithelium. They would give a persistent signal independent of their concentration in the environment if they were not rapidly modified. Propose a mechanism for converting hydrophobic odorants into watersoluble derivatives that can be rapidly eliminated.arrow_forwardWhen light hits a retinal molecule bound to the rhodopsin, the retinal molecule changes its conformation, going from a cis- configuration to an all-trans configuration (see figure below).
