Biology

Otrada [13]2 years ago

A neurotransmitter can have an excitatory or inhibitory effect on the postsynaptic cell, depending on <u>which of its </u><u>receptor(s</u><u>) are present on the </u><u>postsynaptic</u><u> (target) cell.</u>

<h3>How do excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters act?</h3>

Sometimes neurotransmitters can bind to receptors and cause an electrical signal to be transmitted through the cell (excitatory). In other cases, the neurotransmitter can prevent the signal from continuing, preventing the message from being carried (inhibitory).

With this information, we can conclude that a neurotransmitter is a signaling molecule secreted by a neuron to affect another cell across a synapse.

What is the fate of the products produced from photosynthesis​
otez555 [7]
Photosynthesis produces oxygen and water. Photosynthesis is the result of a cycle. Humans use oxygen for respiration, the product produced from human respiration is carbon dioxide. Then plants absorb carbon dioxide from the air and turn it into oxygen with photosynthesis, this goes on and on as a cycle.

What is not a dissolved gas present in the ocean
liraira [26]

The correct answer is option B, hydrogen.

The majority of the atmospheric gases are found in the sea water solution. In supplementation to oxygen and nitrogen, the most profusely found gas in the atmosphere, that is, carbon dioxide is found in the ample concentrations in the ocean waters.  

However, hydrogen is not present, and if found it is found in minute concentration. Of the gases, nitrogen is the most abundant gas found in seawater, while oxygen is the second most abundant, and carbon dioxide is the most soluble gas, and one of the various constituents, which influences the pH balance of the ocean.
