Which of the following statements about the medial forebrain bundle (MFB) or nucleus accumbens is FALSE?...

Which of the following statements about the medial forebrain bundle (MFB) or nucleus accumbens is FALSE?

When dopamine is no longer released in the nucleus accumbens by electrical stimulation of the MFB, rats no longer find the electrical stimulation rewarding.

Axons from the VTA (ventral tegmental area) project through the MFB to a portion of the basal ganglia, the nucleus accumbens.

When given control of the electrical stimulus, humans refuse to stimulate the nucleus accumbens.

Electrical stimulation of the MFB causes dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens.

Which of the following statements about receptor potentials is FALSE?
Which of the following statements about receptor potentials is FALSE? A. They are changes in the resting membrane potential of a sensory cell in response to a stimulus. B. The receptor potential spreads from the cell body of a sensory cell to the axon hillock, where action potentials can be generated C. One receptor potential always prompts the release of a neurotransmitter that induces an associated neuron to generate an action potential. D. They must be converted into action potentials...

Dopaminergic neurons are found in the nucleus accumbens (IB word). Why do we need a nucleus accumbens? [1] What is the ‘secondary messenger’ concept? [1] Slow receptors can modulate Fast receptors. How? [2] Opioids bind to opioid receptors on widely distributed pain pathways. Since they themselves are GPCRs they can act at a distance far from the opioid receptor.   What effect do opioids have on the pre- and post-synaptic membranes of neurons in the pain pathways? [4]

Which of the following statements about perfect price discrimination is false?A condition for perfect price discrimination is that it must be costlier to service some customers than others.There is no consumer surplus if a firm engages in perfect price discrimination.For the price-discriminating firm, its marginal revenue curve coincides with its demand curve.Perfect price discrimination occurs when the seller charges the highest price each consumer would be willing to pay for the product.

Decide which of the following statements are True and which are False about equilibrium systems: If K = 8 for the reaction A + B ⇌ C + D, K will equal -8 for the reaction C + D ⇌ A + B For a reaction with K >> 1, the rate of the forward reaction is less than the rate of the reverse reaction at equilibrium. The value of K at constant temperature does not depend on the amounts...

Decide which of the following statements are True and which are False about equilibrium systems: The value of K at constant temperature depends on the amounts of reactants and products that are mixed together initially. For a reaction with K >> 1, the rate of the forward reaction is less than the rate of the reverse reaction at equilibrium. A large value of K means the equilibrium position lies far to the left. For the following reaction: CaCO3(s) ⇌ CaO(s)...
