The correct answer will be A;
A) The number of protons in the nucleus does not equal the number of neutrons.
A=mass number:
Z=atomic number (= number of protons)
N=number of neutrons:
A=Z+N
If the number of protons in the nucleus is equal the number of neutrons , we would have an even mass number; because Z=N=x; then A=x+x=2x (this is always an even number) but 23 is an odd number, therefore the number of protons in the nucleus does not equal the number of neutrons.
That's because it helps migrate the serves in 2 important purposes: conserve (save) energy and it is easy to keep track for the birds to fly in the group.

Answer:
This question lacks options, the options are:
a. Presynaptic; Ca2+ ions
b. Postsynaptic; Ca2+ ions.
c. postsynaptic; neurotransmitters
d. presynaptic; neurotransmitters
e. dendritic; neurotransmitters
The correct answer is d. Tetrahydrocannabinol, the active ingredient in marijuana, binds to receptors located in the <u>presynaptic</u> terminals of certain brain neurons. It lowers the likelihood that these neurons will release <u>neurotransmitters</u>
.
Explanation:
Tetrahydrocannabinol is the most abundant cannabinoid in most cannabis varieties and has the most potent psychoactive effect. Conventional neurotransmitters are water-soluble substances stored in small vesicles at the thin ends of the axon (presynaptic terminals). When a neuron generates an impulse by sending an electrical signal along the axon to the presynaptic terminals, the neurotransmitters are released from the vesicles, diffuse through a narrow intercellular space (synaptic cleft) and interact with the receptors on the surface of the recipient neuron (postsynaptic neuron). Cannabinoids cause a decrease in the release of neurotransmitters from the presynaptic terminal through the inhibition of Ca++ channels. This signaling is mediated by the βγ subunit of the G protein. The βγ subunit of the G protein inhibits the Ca channels of type N and P / Q, which are the majority in presynaptic neurons.
Both statements about the experiment are observations.
