Answer: Parasites
Explanation:
Both tapeworms and lice depend on a living host to survive. The relationship between the parasite, tapeworm or lice, isn't mutual. The parasite only benefits from the relationship, because the host provides them with plenty of nutrients. In some cases, tapeworms and lice can carry diseases and infect the host. So, there is your answer and goodluck!
Damage to the brain because it could rot that one part of your brain
Answer:
b. The rats press the lever least when cocaine is presented.
Explanation:
Reinforcement or reward refers to the physiological processes by which a given behavior, such as drug use, becomes habitual. This occurs when neurons release the neurotransmitter dopamine to the nucleus accumbens (NAc) after drug use.
In tobacco, nicotine is the main component triggering of the reinforcement. Once inside the brain, nicotine activates nicotinic receptors, which in turn contributes to the reinforcement mechanism. Following repeated exposure to nicotine, a neuroadaptation process is established for some (but not all) effects of nicotine. Increased brain nAChRs (acetylcoline receptors) are observed in response to desensitization of these nicotine-mediated receptors. This desensitization can play an important role in the development of tolerance and dependence.
The fact that nicotine is a weak reinforcer, means that maybe the rat already had an neuroadaptation with this drug, not feeling anything with this drug anymore, and thats why he would prefer other drug, like cocaine, pressing the lever of nicotine less often.
The Swiss developmental psychologist Jean Piaget used the term assimilation to explain the process in which people understand an experience in terms of their current stage of cognitive development and way of thinking. Assimilation is included in the adaptation process and includes the learning of new information and incorporation of that new information into our existing knowledge.
