Answer: The answer is B- Diffusion of calcium ions through NMDA receptors.
Explanation:
Phantom limb pain (PLP) is a painful sensation experienced after the loss or amputation of a limb. The limb is no longer there but the individual can still feel real and severe pains in the limb. This occurs soon after surgery.
NMDA is a receptor for Glutamate which is an excitatory neurotransmitter. The activation of NMDA receptors are associated with hyperalgesia which is an abnormally heightened sensitivity to pain.

Answer:
The correct answer is option b. "Guppy color patterns would change; guppies would produce fewer but larger offspring; the nitrogen excretion rate would increase and the rate of growth of primary producers such as algae would increase".
Explanation:
The Trinidadian guppy is a species of fish with the scientific name <em>Poecilia reticulata</em>. Just like almost all species, its population is regulated for multiple factors, one of them being the presence of predators. The removal of Trinidadian guppy predators would result in multiple consequences:
- Guppy color patterns would change. The fish have a complex coloration determined largely by predation avoidance.
- Guppies would produce fewer but larger offspring. This adaptation has been proved in an experiment at which the fish was introduced one a low predation environment. The report proved that evolution can take place in less than 10 years.
- The nitrogen excretion rate would increase. It has been reported that predation reduce Trinidadian guppy nitrogen excretion by 40%. Removing the predators will case the nitrogen excretion rate to increase due to an increase in the fish food intake.
- The rate of growth of primary producers such as algae would increase. This is an effect of the increase of nitrogen excretion rate, which benefits algae population to growth.
The correct answer is option (D) store and release neurotransmitters.
The function of synaptic vesicles inside the axon terminals is to store and release the neurotransmitters. A synapse refers to the junction between the two neurons which transmit the nerve impulses by the diffusion of a neurotransmitter. Synaptic vesicles ar important for the transmission or the conduction of the nerve impulses as they store and release the neurotransmitters.
These neurotransmitters are the chemicals that transmit an impulse between two neurons or a neuromuscular junction. A neurotransmitter is released by the synaptic vesicle of one neuron into a region between the two neurons called the synapatic cleft. From here, it reaches the neurtransmitter receptors present on the target neuron, thus conducting the impulse. Examples of neurotransmitters include the epinephrine, histamine, acetylcholine and others.
