What are endorphins and how do these chemicals alter the communication of pain in the body?

Biology
1 answer:
Solnce55 [7]4 years ago

Endorphins are brain chemicals known as neurotransmitters which are released when the body feels a certain amount of stress and pain. Endorphins alter the communication of pain in the body by interacting with the opiate receptors and blocking the synapse so that signals cannot be sent to the brain in order to reduce an individual perception of pain.

Tell me a little about prokaryotes and eukaryotes. What do these types of cells have in common? How are they different?
beks73 [17]

Hi There!

Tell me a little about prokaryotic and eukaryotes.

What do these types of cells have in common?

How are they different?

2 very common similarities between the types of cells is that they both have a certain type of structure and all cells have a plasma membrane, DNA, ribosome, etc. They are different in a way that eukaryotes have a "membrane-bound organelle" which usualy includes it having a nucleus. Whats cool is that eukaryotes can be multicellular or singled celled> For Example, plants, insects, and fungi. Prokaryotes don't have a nucleus or organelle (membrane bound).

Hope This Helps :)
