Someone walked three blocks east then two blocks south one block west and finally two blocks north they traveled a distance of eight blocks and have a displacement of what blocks east?
3 blocks east
What number is less than 999 has twice as many 100 blocks as 10 blocks and has twice as many 10 blocks as 1 blocks?
1000
What is the volume of 3 blocks wide 2 blocks long 2 block high?
12 blocks
What is a drug that blocks the release of neurotransmitters?
Botulinum toxin, commonly known as Botox, is a drug that blocks the release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, preventing muscle contractions. This action can help to reduce muscle spasticity, dystonia, and other conditions related to excessive muscle activity.
A drug that mimics the effects of a particular neurotransmitter or blocks its reuptake is called?
an antagonist
Which neurotransmitter is involved in drug addiction?
Dopamine is the primary neurotransmitter involved in drug addiction. It plays a key role in the brain's reward system, reinforcing behaviors that lead to the release of dopamine, such as drug use. Over time, repeated drug use can disrupt the natural dopamine balance in the brain, leading to addiction.
What was the first drug to have an effect on a neurotransmitter?
Opium.
What does botulinum toxin do?
Botulinum toxin blocks motor nerves' ability to release acetylcho-line, the neurotransmitter that relays nerve signals to muscles, and flaccid paralysis occurs.
How would a drug that blocks acetylcholine release affect muscle contraction?
All I know is that acetylcholine is the only neurotransmitter that transmits signals from nerves to skeletal muscles, so anything that blocks it would probably have the effect of you wanting to move your muscles, but either not being able to, or moving weakly. Just a (educated) guess. It would cause spastic paralysis (muscles are contracted and unable to relax)
Which type of drug typically acts on the neurotransmitter GABA?
Antianxiety
Is adrenaline a depressant hallucinogen or stimulant?
stimulant it's a neurotransmitter, not a drug
Which inhibitory neurotransmitter is considered to be the most prevalent in the mammalian CNS?
GABA, or gamma amino butyric acid, is made from glutamate in the cells of the brain. This inhibitory neurotransmitter blocks nerve impulses.
Nicotine facilitates the release of a neurotransmitter which causes an individual to feel more alert This neurotransmitter is known as?
acetycholine
Cholinergic synapses release what neurotransmitter?
acetylcholine (ACh)
Will lyrica show up in a drug test?
No.
