Answer:

The correct answer is - reuptake of the neurotransmitter molecule into the axon through a membrane transporter.

Explanation:

The action of a neurotransmitter at the postsynaptic cell or postsynaptic potentials is terminated by any of these mechanisms that are enzymatic degradation, diffusion or reuptake into the presynaptic cell by specific transporters.

After the desired biological response by postsynaptic potentials, in order to avoid over stimulation or termination of the postsynaptic potentials the neurotransmitter is taken back into the axon through a membrane transporter. This mechanism is to maintain a balance.

bogdanovich [222]
From the list provided the eco-friendly activities are recycling materials, growing trees, burying organic matter and using fewer disposables. Recycling materials ensures that less refuse is available to become trash. Planting trees prevents and remedies soil erosion. Using fewer disposables ensures that less refuse enters the environment. Filling landfills, cutting trees and burning fossil fuels are all non eco-friendly practices.

Stolb23 [73]

The correct answer is (4) Autotrophic organism.

Green plants make their own food by the process of photosynthesis using sunlight. Most of the autotrophs use carbon dioxide, sunlight and carbon dioxide to produce glucose that is used by the plants to obtain energy. Most of the oxygen comes from these organisms and decrease in the number of green plants can lead to several problems due to decrease in the amount of oxygen. Example: green plants, algae, and even some bacteria. This food and oxygen is produced by the action of autotrophic organisms
