Cocaine selectively blocks sodium channels which is the mechanism that leads to local anesthetic effects.
Voltage gated sodium channels play very important roles in the body as they are responsible for action initiation and propagation in excitable cells, such as nerves, muscles and neuroendocrine cells. Like other sodium ion channels blockers such as lidocaine, Cocaine selectively blocks sodium ion channels which denies entry of sodium ions in the cell, thus leading to local anesthetic effects.

Answer:
1.3223 acres
Explanation:
a football field's area is 360 feet (120 yards) x 160 feet (53.333 yards) = 57,600 sq. feet
if the area of an acre is 43,560 sq. feet, then a football field in acres = 57,600 sq. feet / 43,560 sq. feet = 1.3223 acres
we can verify our answer by doing the same calculation in sq. yards:
football field = 120 yards x 53.33 yards = 6,400 sq. yards
an acre is 4,840 sq. yards
football field in acres = 6,400 sq. yards / 4,840 sq. yards = 1.3223 acres
Answer:
Element
Explanation:
Each different kind of atom represents an atom. Elements like atoms are considered to be distinct substances that cannot be split into simpler substances. Such substances are known to be made up of just one kind of atom.
Like an atom, elements are made up of protons, neutrons and electrons. Both the protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of the atom.
