Look at the diagram of the synaptic transmission. the receiving dendrite has receptor proteins to bind to the released neurotransmitter molecules. there are several neurotransmitter molecules, of which glutamate is the most common. use the diagram and the information to discuss the following questions:
how might a synapse be changed to be more efficient in transmissions?
of what advantage is it to use a relatively small neurotransmitter molecule such as glutamate?

What is the inability of an individual or a society to achieve a minimum standard of living known as ?

The graph shows the amount of global warming happening in different ecosystems. which populations of organisms will likely decline the most as a result of climate change, and why? a.coral reefs because of the loss of the symbiotic algae living within their bodies b.penguin populations because the fish they eat will move into warmer waters c.mountain-dwelling birds because rising sea levels will relocate their food sources d.large cats in the rainforest because of decreased habitat loss for their prey

Recently, crops of vegetables such as lettuce and green onions have been contaminated, while they are still on the farm, with bacteria that cause food poisoning. how will science influence the way the government responds to prevent an increase in food-borne diseases? because science has shown that lettuce and green onions are not nutritionally valuable, the government may pass laws that ban the sale of lettuce and green onions. because science has shown that there is no way to prevent bacterial contamination, the government may pass laws that punish businesses that buy lettuce and green onions. because science has shown that the washing of hands prevent the spread of infectious diseases among people, the government may pass laws that require hand washing by everyone who handles food. because science has shown there are ways to find the source of the contamination, the government may pass laws that require farm practices that reduce the contamination of lettuce and green onions.
