distribution c. absorption d. metabolism?

I believe the answer is <span>c. absorption

</span>The phase of pharmacokinetic that happens in the intestine is when the drug absorbed. A person with old age will have lower intestine motility. This will increase the transit time which will increase the amount of drug absorbed.

Age could also influence others pharmacokinetic parameter(<span>excretion, distribution, metabolism) but it is related with another organ, not intestine.</span>

Functional magnetic resonance imaging

Contemporary cognitive neuroscientists often employ a technique called functional magnetic resonance imaging which uses multiple radio-frequency images of the brain to detect changes in activity in a particular brain region.

Functional magnetic resonance imaging is a technique used to measure the activity of the brain. The technique functions by detecting the changes in blood flow and oxygenation in a certain area of the brain. Functional magnetic resonance imaging helps in the examination of the brain’s functional anatomy as it creates activation maps that reveal the certain region of the brain. It also helps to analyze the effects of diseases such as stroke.
