Answer: D. glutamate

Explanation:

The GLUTAMATE HYPOTHESIS OF SCHIZOPHRENIA is based around the belief that schizophrenia may be due to a low level of activity of glutamate in the glutamate synapse, especially in the prefrontal cortex.

This is because, increased levels of dopamine have been known to lead to schizophrenia according to the DOPAMINE THEORY of schizophrenia and dopamine inhibits the release of glutamate as well as inhibiting neurons that glutamate excites.

In short, INCREASED levels of dopamine show symptoms similar to DECREASED levels of glutamate meaning that schizophrenia may be due to a deficiency of activity of the glutamate synapse .

Answer:

Americans with Disabilities Act                    

Explanation:

This offers Americans of disability additional protection from prejudice as those of the 1964 Civil Rights law, which made prejudice on the basis, ethnicity, gender, ethnicity, and other attributes unlawful.

Therefore, unlike in the Civil Rights law, the ADA also allows protected businesses to provide appropriate adjustments for workers with conditions and sets equal protection accessibility standards.

A command economy is when government central planners own or control the means of production, and determine the distribution of output.

Central planners in a command economy are unable to rationally determine the methods, quantities, proportions, location, and timing of economic activity across an economy without private property or the operation of supply and demand.
