Answer:

interferes with release of neural transmitter GABA

Explanation:

Alcohol is a central nervous system depressant, meaning it slows down brain functioning and neural activity. Alcohol does this by enhancing the effects of the neural transmitter GABA

depressants essentially "look" like the neural transmitter and so they go in and block the plasce in the brain between synapses, so when the body tries to release GABA, it appears as if it is already filled in, but in reality it is the alcohol that has filled it. once they start buidling up, they block enough that it impairs brain activity

Why do polygenic characteristics have many phenotypes?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The involvement of more than two genes.

Explanation:

The polygenic characteristics have many phenotypes because more than two genes governs the phenotype of individual organism. The single gene contains a pair of alleles that codes for two phenotype and two genes will code for 4 phenotype. Thus, more than two genes for example, three genes will have six phenotypes.

The skin color and height are polygenic characterstics in humans.
