Answer: E. exocytosis and it requires expenditure of ATP

Explanation:

Neurotransmitters are molecules released by synaptic pre-neurons and are the means of communication in a chemical synapse. They bind to neurotransmitter receptors and can attach to an ion channel (ionotropic receptors) or an intracellular signaling process (metabotropic receptors). Neurotransmitters are specific for the receptor they bind to and elicit a specific response in postsynaptic neurons, resulting in an excitatory or inhibitory signal. Because exocytosis is an example of active transport, it requires expenditure of ATP.

Olfactory information is sent to all of the following areas EXCEPT the __________.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

The answer is D thalamus

Explanation:

The response to an olfactory stimulus travels through the olfactory nerve, crossing the sieve lamina of the ethmoid, located in the anterior region of the brain. From there the stimulus travels to the olfactory bulb ending in the olfactory glomeruli where aromatic signals are processed, which are conducted by special receptor cells. The information subsequently reaches the hypothalamus and the limbic system. Finally, the information reaches the temporal and frontal cerebral cortex where the odor stimulus becomes conscious.

A medical assistant assists a patient into a dorsal recumbent position in preparation for an exam. How is the patient positioned

aleksklad [387]

A patient is helped into a dorsal recumbent position so they may be examined by a medical assistant. The patient is positioned in this posture by lying face up, with the feet flat on the table and the legs bent.

The dorsal recumbent position is used for preparation for an exam like vaginal examinations, using obstetric forceps, and other operations. The patient is positioned on their back with their lower limbs flexed and turned outward. It is one of the frequently utilized dorsal or supine postures in clinical practices. Additionally, the terms "supine posture" and "dorsal recumbent position" are sometimes interchanged. To be more specific though, there is little distinction between the two locations.
