Biology

Caffeine works as an adenosine receptor antagonists, this essentially means that it works in the opposite manner or works against the receptor. Think of antagonist in the term of literature it goes against the agonist. Adenosine when bond to the receptor causes tiredness, this is the reason why people drink caffeine to stay wake and to prevent cognitive decline from exhaustion. So caffeine doesn’t really effect learning or memory to a large extent like other stimulants do. So basically caffeine increases wakefulness which in turn allows a person to focus longer, slight increase in memory, and more of a sorted out thought process.

At night, the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air in a forest is high. What is the main reason for this?
frez [133]

Answer:

The main reason the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air in a forest is high is due to the increase in plant growth.

Explanation:

Plants release carbon dioxide because of the process of respiration in which plants take in oxygen and give out carbon dioxide. During the day, carbon dioxide enters through the tree's pores, making oxygen escape (and is consistent with the “reverse lungs” concept).

On the other hand, at night, oxygen enters through the pores, and carbon dioxide escapes, rather than oxygen.
