Answer:

Agonist drug is a drug that produces intended effect similar to the intended chemical and receptor. Example, endorphins are natural agonist drugs and heroin is an artificial agonist drug that turns to morphine in the body and gets attached to the opiod receptors in the brain and released to the pathways with dopamine.

Antagonist drug is a drug that stops the receptor to produce a response. Example, naloxone that is used to counteract a drug overdose from opiod.

This is what I think. All the best!

Which group’s rights—human participants or nonhuman animals—are the most important to protect? Why?
frez [133]

I personally have to go with nonhumans.


Most of the animals are defenseless, especially when humans fight unfair.

Think about, humans kill lions. But it should be a fair fight, obviously the lion would win. But humans have crafted weapons to harm these creatures a lot of the times for absolute no reason besides greed.

I feel like animals are very defenseless and clueless and humans take advantage to that to the max- sadly.

If you need a longer explanation, I can give more.

Hope this helps!
