Sense Organs. The nervous system is responsible for sensing the external and internal environments of an organism, and for inducing muscle movement. Human sensation is achieved through the stimulation of specialized neurons, organized into five different modalitiesâtouch, balance, taste, smell, hearing, and vision.
A byte is a sequence of bits. In computer networking, some network protocols send and receive data in the form of byte sequences. These are called byte-oriented protocols. Examples of byte-oriented protocols include TCP/IP and telnet. The order in which bytes are sequenced in a byte-oriented network protocol is called the network byte order. The maximum size of a single unit of transmission for these protocols, the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU), is also measured in bytes. Network programmers routinely work both with network byte ordering and MTUs.
Why it matters-If you use a package like FTP to download a web-based Text (i.e. ASCII) file (where Unix is the assumed operating system) to an MS-DOS based system, the FTP process will automatically scan the file and replace each line feed character with a carriage return-line feed pair. byte is the collection of bits used by a particular computer for the most common character encoding scheme used by that computer. The most common byte size is 8 bits, but 6, 7, 9, and 12-bit bytes are used by some (different) computer systems.
