Use the drop down menu to accurately complete each statement in the passage.(4 points)
Each sense receptor responds to different inputs called stimuli. These can be classified as electromagnetic, mechanical, or chemical. The receptor transmits them as signals that travel along nerve cells to the brain. The signals are then processed, resulting in immediate behaviors or memories. For example,
stimuli (light intensity and color) are received by the eye;
stimuli (sound waves) are received by the hair cells of the inner ear; more
stimuli (pressure) are received by the skin; and
stimuli (foods) are received by the various taste buds.

Here are the completed statements using the drop-down menu options:

Each sense receptor responds to different inputs called stimuli. These can be classified as electromagnetic, mechanical, or chemical. The receptor transmits them as signals that travel along nerve cells to the brain. The signals are then processed, resulting in immediate behaviors or memories. For example, **electromagnetic** stimuli (light intensity and color) are received by the eye; **mechanical** stimuli (sound waves) are received by the hair cells of the inner ear; more **mechanical** stimuli (pressure) are received by the skin; and **chemical** stimuli (foods) are received by the various taste buds.
