On a biochemical level, cocaine blocks the reabsorption of the neurotransmitter ________.
ANTONII [103]

Dopamine

On a biochemical level, cocaine blocks the reabsorption of the neurotransmitter dopamine.

Dopamine is a neurotransmitter (chemical) released by nerve cells in the body to transmit information from one neuron to another. Dopamine performs various important roles in the brain and body. Cocaine, which is a drug of abuse, blocks the reabsorption of dopamine. Cocaine acts by binding to the dopamine transporter, and stops the removal of dopamine from the synapse. Dopamine then increase in the synapse to form an amplified signal to the receiving nerve cells. This result in euphoria (feeling of intense excitement) experienced immediately after administering the drug.

Describe why some water uses are called consumptive
ella [17]

Answer:

Consumptive rates are so high because water that is applied to a field is considered lost to the immediate water system. It either gets evaporated, used by the plants, or leaves the field as run-off. In addition, leaks or evaporation cause loss while water is being transported from the source to the field, often over great distances.
