How does the neuron know when to release the neurotransmitters?

All neurotransmitter receptors should be thought of as having two functions: First, to detect a particular neurotransmitter, and second, to do something<span> when they detect it. The receptor determines what the neurotransmitter's effect is. So it's not always right to call a neurotransmitter inhibitory or excitatory. Glutamate, for example, is among the most common neurotransmitters, and it's almost always excitatory... Except when it binds to a particular type of glutamate receptor, which is inhibitory. Done dopamine receptors are excitatory, some are inhibitory, and not all receptors have effects that fit neatly into those two categories. Sometimes a receptor will have an effect on something completely different... When the NMDA subtype of glutamate receptor is activated, for example, it can cause the postsynaptic cell to change what receptors it puts at that synapse (a cell can have different receptors at different synapses!). Your welcome!

What energy yield (in molecules of ATPATP per molecule of monosaccharide) would you predict for the bacterial catabolism of raff
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 2.67 ATP per molecule.

Explanation:

With the help of sucrose, it comes to known that the dissociation of a sugar-sugar bond generates one phosphorylated monosaccharide. Therefore, raffinose, which is a trisaccharide exhibits bonds of two sugar-sugar molecules. Post dissociation, they will generate one regular monosaccharide and two phosphorylated monosaccharides.  

There will be the generation of net ATPs by each phosphorylated monosaccharide as they are already phosphorylated. While the regular monosaccharide, which is first needed to get phosphorylated will only produce two ATPs. Thus, a total of 8 ATPs will be produced by one molecule of raffinose. After dividing by three monosaccharides, the molecule will produce 8/3 = 2.67 ATPs per monosaccharide.

Aquaculture includes the following:

  • Mariculture - involves using seawater
  • Fish Farming - the farming of fishes
  • Algaculture: - involves the farming of algae.

In conclusion, the growing of marine organisms is called aquaculture.

timurjin [86]

Explanation:

(a) Silicosis is a situation in which the person work in stone grinding industries, they tend to inhale the crystalline silica dust, which is also a part of sand and rock. It affects the human lungs and can cause lung fibrosis.

(b) Benzoates, Nitrates, sulphites are the food preservatives chemicals which are used mostly in food preparation so that it can be stored for long period. These chemicals are harmful for human and can cause disease in the human. They can cause severe asthma in humans. The international agency for the research of cancer has reviewed ingested nitrates and nitrites are probably carcinogenic to humans.

(c) Industrial pollution cause water and soil pollution. Industrial pollution is the release of wastes and pollutants generated by the industrial activities into the natural environmental including air, water and sand. It causes chronic health problems. Polluted air cause lung related issue and polluted water causes abdominal pain, diarrhea in humans

What's the difference between nitrification and dentification
Y_Kistochka [10]

Difference between nitrification and dentrification

Explanation:

Nitrification and denitrification are part of the nitrogen cycle

Nitrification is the process of conversion of ammonium to nitrate by nitrifying bacteria like Nitrobacter and Nitrosomonas

Denitrification is the process of reduction of nitrate to nitrogen gas by denitrifying bacteria like Pseudomonos, Lactobacillus etc.

Nitrifying bacteria are autotrophs and grows slowly and need aerobic condition.  Denitrifying bacteria are hetertrophs and grows rapidly and need anaerobic conditions.

Nitrification requires a pH of about 6.5 to 8.0; denitrification takes place at 7.0 to 8.5

Nitrification provides soluble nitrates readily available in the soil to be easily absorbed by the roots.

Denitrification processes are used in wastewater or effluent treatment plants.
