(T/F) Balance and body position during flight would be monitored in part using hair plates located on the prothorax behind the head capsule. (T/F) When performing waggle dances in the hive, the bee would produce pulses of spund to indicate the distance to the flowers and these sounds would be detected by the dance followers using the sensory structure shown in Fig. 3. (T/F) The Central Pattern Generators for operating the indirect flight muscles are contained in the tritocerebrum of the bee's supraesophagael ganglion.

Insects and vertebrates have analogous proprioceptors that monitor muscle length and tension, joint positions, limb forces, and so on. Insects, however, do not have statocysts to monitor the direction of gravitational force. How could an insect detect gravity when at rest? What could be the possible adaptive advantage of the absence of statocysts for a flying insect?

Describe what a graph of action potential amplitude vs stimulus intensity for a frog sciatic nerve would look like. What would be the x-axis label and units of measurement? What would be the y-axis label and units of measurement?
Would a bee be able to waggle in outer space? Why or why not? If yes, how might the waggle differ?
Which role do gamma (γ) motor neurons play in the function of a muscle spindle? Select one: a. They improve the accuracy of the reported sensory information by innervating intrafusal fibers b. They enhance the force of muscle contraction by innervating intrafusal fibers c. They coordinate the contraction of extrafusal and intrafusal fibers d. They improve the accuracy of the reported sensory information by innervating extrafusal fibers e. They enhance the force of muscle contraction by innervating extrafusal fibers

Suppose that we sample a signal at fS = 250 Hz and get alternating values of -2 and 6 V. (a) What do we know about the frequency of the original, continuous signal? Please explain :) thank youuuu. Pictures would also be nice if can.
A bat is 100 ft. below and to the right of a moth, as shown in the diagram below. At this distance, the bat’s cry is faint and the moth can here the bat, but the bat cannot yet detect the moth. Which of the following statements is correct for the escape decision the moth will make? a. The right A2 fiber of the moth will fire faster than the left A2 fiber, causing the moth to spiral out of control to the left. b. The firing of the A1 fibers will not fluctuate with the beating of the moth’s wings, and the moth will assess that the bat is below it. c. Because of the distance between the moth and bat, the moth’s A2 fibers will not fire and as a consequence the moth will take no action to evade the bat. d. The right A1 fiber will fire faster than the left A1 fiber and the moth will maneuver it’s body until the firing rates are equal. e. None of these will occur f. a and c g. b and d
Consider the audibility curves in the graph above. Suppose all animals listed in the graph are present, and a sound with a frequency of 5000 Hz is played. Which of the following statements would be correct? a. The brachiosaurus perceived the greatest loudness of the 5,000 Hz sound b. A sound of 1,000 Hz would need greater amplitude than the 5,000 Hz sound for the great tit to perceive the same loudness c. A sound of 10,000 Hz would need greater amplitude than the 5,000 Hz sound for the dog to perceive the same loudness d. A sound of 9,000 Hz would be perceived as louder for the human than the dog.
