Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are drugs that are antidepressants. These blocks the reuptake of a neurotransmitter leading to increases in their activity in the synaptic cells.

<h3>What are neurotransmitters?</h3>

Neurotransmitters are defined as the signaling molecules that are secreted by the nerve cells and act as signal transporter between the neurons and the other cells of the body.

The SSRIs class of drugs affects this neurotransmitter and blocks the pathway to the presynaptic cell. This, in turn, affects synaptic communication by increasing the amount of those SSRIs in the body and acting as a stimulant to treat various diseases.

Therefore, the SSRIs block the neurotransmitter and result in their effects.

Explain the significance of this quote, “Heisenberg may have slept here.”
ch4aika [34]

Umm...Well...

Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle says that we can never know both the position and rate of change of a particle at any time. We can only know one or the other. This leads to rather silly jokes that deal with uncertainty, probability, and superposition. So, saying that "Heisenberg may have slept here" is essentially saying that it is uncertain if Heisenberg slept there or not, making for a rather silly, but slightly unfunny physics joke.

A bottle of the antiseptic hydrogen peroxide is labeled 3.0% (v/v). How many mL of hydrogen peroxide are in a 400 mL bottle of t
zepelin [54]
There are several ways of expressing concentration of solution. Few of them are listed below
1) mass percentage
2) volume percentage
3) Molarity
4) Normality
5) Molality

In most of the drugs, concentration is expressed either in terms of mass percentage or volume percentage. For, solid in liquid type systems, mass percentage is convenient way of expressing concentration, while for liquid in liquid type solutions, expressing concentration in terms of volume percentage is preferred. Present system is an example of liquid in liquid type solution 


Here, concentration of H2O2 is given antiseptic = 3.0 % v/v

It implies that, 3ml  H2O2 is present in 100 ml of solution

Thus, 400 ml of solution would contain 4 X 3 = 12 ml H2O2

Help ASAP please!!!!!!!!!!!
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

The second one

Explanation:

Gas pressure is caused by gas molecules bouncing off the container walls and each other. Every time a molecule changes direction because it hits a wall, the change in momentum results in a small push. Due to the large number of molecules involved, the pushes add up to a large amount of pressure.

When given the following: density = 0.79 g/mL and mass =8g (answer can be found in your reading) What is the volume of the objec
tatyana61 [14]

Hey there!:

Density = 0.79 g/mL

mass = 8 g

Volume = ??

Therefore:

D = m / V

0.79 = 8 / V

Volume = 8 / 0.79

Volume  = 10.126 mL

Hope this helps!
