Taxis is an organism's instinctive movement either towards or away from a stimulant. Positive taxis occurs when an organism moves up a gradient, towards a stimulus. Negative taxis occurs when an organism moves down a gradient, away from a stimulus.
Phototaxis occurs when an organism moves either towards or away from a light source. (That is, up or down a light gradient). The phototactic stimulus is the light itself (regardless of whether the organism moves towards or away from it).
For example, a single-celled Euglena (a photosynthetic protist) exhibits positive phototaxis during the daytime: when exposed to sun, it moves from dim areas up the light gradient into bright sunshine. The phototactic stimulus is sunlight.
Chemotaxis occurs when an organism moves either towards or away from a chemical source. (That is, up or down a chemical gradient). Thus the chemotactic stimulus is the source of the chemical (again, regardless of whether the organism moves towards or away from it).
Interestingly, positive chemotaxis facilitates the process of fertilization in mammals. The egg secretes powerful chemical attractants, which the sperm swim towards enthusiastically as they make their way up the fallopian tube, like a hungry traveler following his nose to a bakery. For the sperm, the chemotactic stimulus is the chemical attractant secreted by the egg.

A Chemo is cross between a Chav and Emo
Chemosythetic autotrophs use chemicals for "food", but photosynthetic autotrophs use light (sunlight) to make their "food".
theres no such thing as chemo cancer but chemo (chemotherepy) is a treatment for cancer
Chemotherapy patients often experience taste aversions to particular foods because they undergo a process of learning called classical conditioning. Classical conditioning occurs when a particular thing that doesn't actually elicit any reaction (called a neutral stimulus) is paired with something that naturally elicits some reaction (called an unconditioned stimulus), and then an association develops between the original stimulus and the reaction (after which the neutral stimulus is then referred to as the conditioned stimulus). The chemicals used in chemotherapy (unconditioned stimulus) are what naturally cause nausea and vomiting; however, sometimes food eaten soon after receiving chemotherapy treatment (neutral stimulus) can be associated with the feeling of illness caused by the chemo, then leading the patient to develop an aversion to that particular food item (now a conditioned stimulus). Typically, classical conditioning requires multiple pairings of the unconditioned and neutral stimulus; however, learned taste aversions can develop after a single pairing, because the body is biologically prepared to develop these.
Chemo - comics - was created in 1962.
The prefix photo means light. think of it as a camera flashing it's a bright light
Chemo - 2010 was released on: USA: 2010
It's harmful regardless of whether or not you had chemo.
Chemo Is used as a prefix for words pertaining to chemicals.
I do not believe it is. My papa has cancer and is a chemo patient and it doesn't effect him. That's using Fresh Step. Although chemo patients should stay away from it because chemo makes you weak and vulnerable to sickness.
they have to use the vertical iv hood in order to mke chemo drugs
