Answer:

Dopamine.

Explanation:

Cocaine is used as a recreational drug and addictive in nature. It can be smelled or directly inhaled in the veins. This drug causes the feeling of restless and happiness.

The dopamine is the important neurotransmitters that regulates the mood and other biological activity of the body. The cocaine inhibit the reuptake of dopamine and leads to its accumulation in the brain. This might also break the blood brain barrier.

Thus, the answer is dopamine.

How do frogs utilize extensor and flexor muscles in order to swim, jump, and do other frog things efficiently; include specific
ahrayia [7]
<span>The structure of the feet and legs varies greatly among frog species, depending in part on whether they live primarily on the ground, in water, in trees or in burrows. Frogs must be able to move quickly through their environment to catch prey and escape predators, and numerous adaptations help them to do so. Most frogs are either proficient at jumping or are descended from ancestors that were, with much of the musculoskeletal morphology modified for this purpose. The tibia, fibula, and tarsals have been fused into a single, strong bone, as have the radius and ulna in the fore limbs (which must absorb the impact on landing). The metatarsals have become elongated to add to the leg length and allow the frog to push against the ground for a longer period on take-off. The illium has elongated and formed a mobile joint with the sacrum which, in specialist jumpers such as ranids and hylids, functions as an additional limb joint to further power the leaps. The tail vertebrae have fused into a urostyle which is retracted inside the pelvis. This enables the force to be transferred from the legs to the body during a leap </span>
<span>The muscular system has been similarly modified. The hind limbs of ancestral frogs presumably contained pairs of muscles which would act in opposition (one muscle to flex the knee, a different muscle to extend it), as is seen in most other limbed animals. However, in modern frogs, almost all muscles have been modified to contribute to the action of jumping, with only a few small muscles remaining to bring the limb back to the starting position and maintain posture. The muscles have also been greatly enlarged, with the main leg muscles accounting for over 17% of the total mass of the frog.</span>

Diagram of a dividing cell of an organism which has a diploid chromosome<br> number of 4
Nata [24]

The type of cell division observed in the Figure is Meiosis. It can be deciphered by the presence of recombination between homo-logous chromosomes.

<h3>What is Meiosis?</h3>

Meiosis is a type of reductional cell division by which a cell produces four daughter cells having half of the genetic material.

Meiosis is a cell division that involves a genetic phenomenon known as recombination or crossing over.

Recombination refers to the exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids during Prophase I.

Explain what a mosaic is and then explain why the term fluid mosaic model is used to describe the plasma membrane
zalisa [80]
Fluid mosaic is a term used to describe the current model of the cell membrane. Cell membranes are basically double layers (bilayers) of molecules called phospholipids.A mosaic is a structure made up of many different parts.<span> Mainly because of the way the plasma membrane is made up. It is fluid because it can wave and wobble like fluid, a bit sticky though. Due to the phospholipids sticking together. It is called mosaic because there are various proteins stuck inside the fluid creating a kind of patchwork or mosaic </span>
