Dopamine is a neurotransmitter involved in the reward pathways in the brain, and its decreased activity has been associated with

diseases such as Parkinson’s disease and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Which of the following drugs is NOT a likely candidate to treat these diseases?
A. Methylphenidate, a dopamine reuptake inhibitor

B. Amphetamine, a dopamine-releasing agent that triggers the release of dopamine into the synaptic cleft

C. Carbidopa, which enhances the availability of the dopamine synthesis precursors in the brain

D. Forskolin, a sensitizer of dopamine receptors

E. Chlorpromazine, a dopamine antagonist that binds to and inhibits dopamine receptors

Answer:

The answer is E; Chlorpromazine, a dopamine antagonist that binds to and inhibits dopamine receptors

Explanation:

Chlorpromazine which is a dopamine antagonist is not a candidate to treat Parkinson's disease and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) because as a dopamine antagonist it works by binding to dopamine receptors but does not activate it, thus blocking the actions of dopamine or exogenous agonists.

In regions of the cardiovascular system where there is steady laminar blood flow, the shear stress on cells lining the walls of
Lynna [10]

Answer:

250 N/m2

Explanation:

Shear stress on cells lining the walls of the blood vessels  is equal to 2020 dyne/cm2

In terms of Newton/square meter, shear stress is equal to

20*\frac{dyne}{cm^2}  (\frac{10^{-5}N}{1 dyne} )*(\frac{1 cm^2}{10^{-4}*m^2} )\\= 2.0 N/m2

Shear modulus is equal to shear stress divided by shear strain

Thus, shear modulus is equal to

= \frac{2.0}{0.008} \\= 250N/m2
