How does alcohol effect the brain and neurotransmitters

Biology
1 answer:
kifflom [539]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Alcohol affects both "excitatory" neurotransmitters and "inhibitory" neurotransmitters. An example of an excitatory neurotransmitter is glutamate, which would normally increase brain activity and energy levels. Alcohol suppresses the release of glutamate, resulting in a slowdown along your brain's highways.

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The correct answer is c the mutant will show decreased levels of gene expression.

Explanation:

Histone acetyl transferase is an enzyme that helps in the transfer of acetyl group to the epsilon -NH2 group of lysine reside of histone proteins that surrounds the DNA molecule of chromosome.

  This results to make the target DNA more assecible for transcription mediated by RNA polymerase resulting the gene expression.

 On the other hand the mutant in which histones are not acetylated,transcription rate decreases as the non acetylated DNA is less assecible to RNA polymerase.

ddd [48]
The dominant shape of a pea pod is Smooth.
To know this we simply need to see the shapes of the majority of pea pod around us and leave the rest to natural selection. The majority of them had smooth shapes.
This indicates that the Genetic that determine the smooth shape of pea pod is Dominant and exist in larger amount.

Explain the processes of venous return in the abdomen. do not just list them! why must the veins employ these methods?
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Venous return (VR) is the flow of blood back to the heart.  

Venous return to the right atrium is the most important factor determining cardiac output, provided both ventricles and the pulmonary circulation are normal.

Explanation:

Venous return refers to the flow of blood from the periphery back to the right atrium, and except for periods of a few seconds, it is equal to cardiac output.

Venous return is facilitated by a number of factors, including inspiration, increased total blood volume, increased venomotor tone, the cardiac suction effect, the presence of venous valves and the skeletal muscle pump.

Contraction of the skeletal muscles surrounding veins increases the pressure within the veins, pushing open the proximal valve and forcing blood toward the heart. For example, when calf muscles contract during exercise, blood is forced toward the heart, thus increasing venous return.
