What evidence from the video indicates that the rats, like humans, find nicotine to be a weak reinforcer?
yKpoI14uk [10]

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.

An older adult client is being treated for hemorrhoids and asks the health care practitioner whether her topical ointment cream
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

the medication should have no interaction with the client's other medications, because this is absorbed locally at the site of the hemorrhoids

Explanation:

Drug interactions are one of the most common drug-related problems. Seeking information about this problem is essential for the efficiency of pharmacological treatment and to avoid health damage caused by the use of medicines.

Topical ointments are creams that are used on the skin and are absorbed where they were applied, so there is a very low risk that these ointments interact with other medicines, as these interactions occur with medicines that enter the bloodstream. Therefore, we can conclude that in the case of the patient described in the question, the drug should not interact with the client's other drugs, because it is absorbed locally at the hemorrhoid site.
