Drugs interfere with the way neurons send, receive, and process signals via neurotransmitters. Some drugs, such as marijuana and heroin, can activate neurons because their chemical structure mimics that of a natural neurotransmitter in the body. This allows the drugs to attach onto and activate the neurons. Although these drugs mimic the brain’s own chemicals, they don’t activate neurons in the same way as a natural neurotransmitter, and they lead to abnormal messages being sent through the network.
Other drugs, such as amphetamine or cocaine, can cause the neurons to release abnormally large amounts of natural neurotransmitters or prevent the normal recycling of these brain chemicals by interfering with transporters. This too amplifies or disrupts the normal communication between neurons.
The "mitochondria" produces ATP which is essential for active transport so it determines the rate of active transport

Answer:
Postulate: Gas particles are extremely small and are far apart.
The activities can be used to demonstrate the postulate is :
<u>Observing colored gas spreading into an inverted jar placed on top of a jar containing the gas</u>
<u />
Explanation:
colored gas spreading into an inverted jar placed on top of a jar containing the gas:
This occur because of two reasons:
1. <em><u>The Gaseous particles are largely spaced . There is large distance between the gases molecule</u></em>
<em><u>2. The gases are in continuous motion . Hence they posses very high kinetic energy . This is the reason they mixes quickly if placed in a jar.</u></em>
<em><u>This occur by the process of diffusion. </u></em>
Diffusion of Gases: The intermixing of particles from the region of high concentration to low concentration.
The coloured gas goes into the space between the gaseous molecule present in the jar.(Gases are far apart)
As soon as the coloured gas is mixed in the jar , It spread quickly by diffusion because , The gaseous particles are extremely small and are far apart.
