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

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Interphase -Interphase is the portion of the cell cycle that is not accompanied by observable changes under the microscope, and includes the G1, S and G2 phases. During interphase, the cell grows (G1), replicates its DNA (S) and prepares for mitosis

Prophase- the first stage of cell division, before metaphase, during which the chromosomes become visible as paired chromatids and the nuclear envelope disappears. The first prophase of meiosis includes the reduction division.

Metaphase - Metaphase  is a stage of mitosis in the eukaryotic cell cycle in which chromosomes are at their second-most condensed and coiled stage (they are at their most condensed in anaphase). These chromosomes, carrying genetic information, align in the equator of the cell before being separated into each of the two daughter cells.

Anaphase - Anaphase  is the stage of mitosis after the process of metaphase, when replicated chromosomes are split and the newly-copied chromosomes (daughter chromatids) are moved to opposite poles of the cell

Telophase- he final phase of cell division, between anaphase and interphase, in which the chromatids or chromosomes move to opposite ends of the cell and two nuclei are formed.

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Hershey and Chase were the scientist that concluded that DNA is the genetic material which is transferred from one generation to another generation.

Before their experiment, people used to believe that protein is the genetic material.

Hershey and Chase conducted an experiment on bacteriophage where Radioactive phosphrous was transferred along with DNA in the cell.

This proved that DNA is the genetic material that transferred information from one generation to another.

Which of the following processes includes all the others?
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Passive transport.

Explanation:

The transport of molecules across the plasma membrane can occur by the two process- active transport and passive transport. No amount of energy is required during the active transport.

Passive transport includes the diffusion and osmosis. Both the diffusion and osmosis do not require energy and the molecules move down from the region of higher concentration towards the region of lower concentration. Small molecules, ions and proteins can go through the passive transport.

Thus, the correct answer is option (c).
