Out of the following given choices;

a.phenothiazines and butyrophenones
b. tricyclics and MAOIs
c. nitrates and glucocorticoids
d. benzodiazepines and antihistamines

The answer is a. butyrophenones work by inhibiting dopamine-mediated neuro-transmitters hence altering the normal thought pattern of its patients. They are more anti-dopamine (and less anti-adrenergic, anti-histaminic and anti-cholinergic) than phenothiazine but work in the same pharmacological way.

Multicellular

Explanation:

Unicellular, as the prefix "uni" implies, only have ONE cell. Unicellular organisms can include bacteria, yeast, protists, etc. Multicellular organisms have many cells and are any plant or animal, as they are much larger and complex than unicellular organisms.

As for the second question, the frilled lizard is a perfect example of the ways that organs work together to form necessary organ systems. In the instance of the heart, there are cardiac muscle cells that branch and connect to each other to form cardiac muscle tissue, which has special junctions that cause the cells to contract together and in turn keep the heart pumping and the circulatory system moving.

The anterior portion of the body of most annelids, such as the earthworm, is adapted for sensing the environment.

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

The answer is False. Although sensitive cells are more abundant in the anterior portion of the annelid´s body, in general, they are arranged in all the segments.

Explanation:

Annelids, such as the earthworm, have a variety of sensory cells:

Mechanoreceptors, disposed of in groups in each segment of their body.

Photoreceptors: Light-sensitive cells. Although they are located in the whole body, they are abundant in anterior and posterior segments, concentrated in the intern and dorsal part of the epidermis.

Humidity receptors are the most sensitive cells and are located in the first segments of the earthworm body

Chemoreceptors: sensorial cells cumulus forming a prominent tubercle with prolongations that extends through the cuticle. These tubercles form three rings in each segment but are especially abundant in the anterior part of the body.

The tegument is very rich in free nervous terminations, which functions might be tactile.
