How does mg2+ block the effect of extracellular calcium on neurotransmitter release?

Chemistry

svetlana [45]3 years ago

<span>Magnesium is a strong anode than calcium. So, Mg will be oxidized into Mg2+. So instead of having Ca being the reducing agent, Mg will takes its place. That's how the "Blocking" occur.
</span><span>Without Ca2+, no neurotransmitter was released because the exocytosis of the synaptic vesicles is dependent upon Ca2+.
</span>So, when magnesium is added to the extracellular fluid it blocks the calcium channels and inhibits the release of <span>neurotransmitter.</span>

How make carbon dioxide ​
puteri [66]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide is produced whenever an acid reacts with a carbonate. This makes carbon dioxide easy to make in the laboratory. Calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid are usually used because they are cheap and easy to obtain. Carbon dioxide can be collected over water, as shown in the diagram.

Why the ph of glycine increases when 0.1 M NaOH is added dropwise​
shtirl [24]

Answer:

The acid-base reaction produces glycine reduction, and hence the increase of glycine pH.

Explanation:

The glycine is an amino acid with the following chemical formula:

NH₂CH₂COOH  

The COOH functional group is what gives the acid properties in the molecule.      

Hence, when NaOH is added to glycine an acid-base reaction takes place in which COOH reacts with the NaOH added:

NH₂CH₂COOH + OH⁻ ⇄ NH₂CH₂COO⁻ + H₂O

The glycine concentration starts to shift to its ion form (NH₂CH₂COO⁻) because of the reaction with NaOH, that is why the pH glycine increases when NaOH is added.  

Therefore, the acid-base reaction produces glycine reduction, and hence the increase of glycine pH.  

I hope it helps you!
