<span>The chemical elements</span><span> can be broadly divided into </span>metals<span>, </span>metalloids<span> and </span>nonmetals<span> according to their shared </span>physical<span> and </span>chemical properties<span>. All metals have a shiny appearance (at least when freshly polished); are good conductors of heat and electricity; form </span>alloys<span> with other metals; and have at least one </span>basic oxide<span>. Metalloids are metallic-looking brittle solids that are either </span>semiconductors<span> or exist in semiconducting forms, and have </span>amphoteric<span> or weakly </span>acidic oxides<span>. Typical nonmetals have a dull, coloured or colourless appearance; are </span>brittle<span> when solid; are poor conductors of heat and electricity; and have acidic oxides. Most or some elements in each category share a range of other properties; a few elements have properties that are either anomalous given their category, or otherwise extraordinary.</span>

agonists generally _______ activity at the synapse while antagonists generally ______ activity at the synapse.
ki77a [65]

Agonists activate the receptor thereby <u>increasing</u> activity at the synapse while antagonists generally prevent agonists from activating the receptors thereby <u>decreasing</u> activity at the synapse.

  • An agonist is the component that has the ability to increase the activity carried out by another substance.

  • The agonists work from their faculty of coupling to a cell-type receptor, in this way, they manage to generate a certain action in the cell.

  • The antagonists are the compounds that cause the opposite when they bind to the receptor, they cause a blockade by decreasing the activation of a synaptic receptor.

Therefore, we can conclude that agonists are compounds capable of increasing the action of synapse and blockers (antagonists) decrease activity at the synapse.
