Question

15. All of the following qualities are phenomena predicted by scientists to be found at Hebbian synapses and which are now known to be components of long-term-potentiation (LTP) except 16. Compared to ionotropic effects, metabotropic effects 17. The brain area in which elevated levels of dopaminergic activity are frequently associatedwith addiction is 18. Behaviors which are characteristic of a particular species, appear fully formed the first time they are emitted, and survive isolation rearing experiments, are termed 19. According to the neuro-developmental hypothesis of schizophrenia, the condition is associated with abnormalities in the nervous system which emerge during 20. A drug that mimics or increases the effects of a neurotransmitter is termed an inhibits the effectiveness of a neurotransmitter is termed an while one that 34. Of the following mechanisms, the one that does not operate at the synapse to alter the activity of eurotransmitters is a. competitive inhibition. b. re-uptake inhibition. c. enzymatic inhibition. d. lateral inhibition.

Answer 1

16. when the ionotropic effect has been compared to metabotropic effect, it has been found that metabotropic effect shows the slow reaction but they have a long-lasting effect.

17. the brain area in which an elevated level of dopaminergic is frequently associated with addiction is the limbic system

limbic system is also called as a brain reward system which is responsible for producing pleasure feelings

19. According to the neurodevelopmental hypothesis of schizophrenia, the condition is associated with abnormalities in the nervous system which emerge during the early life of disruption of the brain leading to later development of psychosis during adulthood
