Phasic receptors Phasic receptors slowly decrease the frequency of action potentials generated to a constant stimulus. detect parameters that the body must continuously assess. once threshold is reached by a stimulus will always generate action potentials. are quick to adapt to a constant stimulus.

For the strategies below, decide whether they are best described as demand-side solutions or supply-side solutions to meeting human needs for fresh water. remember that a demand-side solution reduces demand for fresh water, whereas a supply-side solution increases the supply of fresh water. (a) damming a river to create a reservoir (b) desalinating seawater (c) a nation invading a neighboring country to access their rivers (d) raising water prices for consumers and businesses (e) providing tax breaks for companies that use less water (f) replacing inefficient irrigation with more-efficient drip irrigation to grow crops (g) requiring low-flow showerheads in all new homes
