Nicotine from cigarette smoke acts as a ligand and associates with the acetylcholine receptor on specific cells in the nervous s
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The correct order of events is:

C) Nicotine binds to the transmembrane protein that normally binds the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.

A) The acetylcholine receptor is an ion channel, and when a ligand binds, the ion channel opens.

B) An influx of ions carries the signal to the reward areas of the brain.

D) The signal causes release of dopamine in the brain, which causes good feelings.

E) Nicotine is quickly eliminated from the body (causing cravings for more cigarettes to produce good feelings).

Explanation:

Nicotine acts on acetyl cholinergic receptors that are located in membranes of the midbrain neurons. Nicotine can activate those receptors or block them more efficiently than acetylcholine.   Stimulation of nicotinic receptors leads to an increase in ions flow that reaches the brain and causes dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens through axonal prolongations of the dopaminergic pathway. This response is responsible for the smoker´s recompense sensation.

The dopaminergic pathway is the most important way in the process of nicotine dependence and addiction to the drug.

What is the biological significance of genetic diversity between populations?
Nezavi [6.7K]

The answer to the above question is Genes for traits conferring an advantage to local conditions are unlikely.

<h3>What is genetic diversity?</h3>

Genetic diversity refers to the total number of genetic traits that make up a species' genetic composition. It varies greatly depending on the number of species present as well as across species, and it can be linked to a species' longevity. It differs from genetic variability, which is the propensity for hereditary traits to change.

The ability of populations to adapt to changing circumstances is facilitated by genetic variety. More variation increases the likelihood that certain members of a group will have allele variants that are appropriate for the environment. Those people have a higher chance of living long enough to have children who carry that allele. The success of these people will allow the population to continue for longer generations.

How are tendons and ligaments similar and how are they different
ElenaW [278]

Answer: They are both connecting tissues but they connect different parts.

The major difference between tendons and ligaments is that they connect different structures of the body. Tendons connect muscles to bones while ligaments connect bones to other bones.
