Excitatory synapse is defined as the in which the positive action potential is caused in the neurons and cells.

The correct answer is:

Option D. A drug that inhibits an enzyme in the synaptic cleft that degrades the neurotransmitter

Excitatory synapse can be explained as:

1. Excitatory synapse will be determined by the neurotransmitter if it is released from the presynaptic neuron. The neurotransmitter will inhibit or excite the receiving neuron.

2. The synapse can be strengthened by the drug that inhibits the synaptic cleft that degrades the neurotransmitter. The calcium influx triggers the synaptic vesicles to bind to the presynaptic membrane.

3. The action potential causes the release of ACh into the synaptic cleft that causes the conformational change in the membrane channels.

Thus, the correct answer is Option C.

Answer:

Liver and spleen is primarily responsible for removing old or worn red blood cells from circulation.

Explanation:

Red blood cells that are old, tear and worn out requires the removal of these cells from the circulation. Spleen removes the old and worn cells by  the process of phagocytosis. Macrophages present in the spleen phagocytose the worn RBCs and old RBCs are recycled by the spleen.

Liver also removes the old and worn RBCs from the circulation and recycles iron present in the red blood cells. Liver rely on the buffer system that consume worn RBCs and  has the ability of recycling iron.

The spleen and liver are primarily responsible for removing old or worn red blood cells, helped by macrophages in those organs and the bone marrow. These organs ensure the continual renewal of healthy RBCs in circulation.

The organs that are primarily responsible for removing old or worn red blood cells (RBCs) from circulation are the spleen, liver, and to some extent, the bone marrow. RBCs have a lifespan of approximately 120 days, after which they become old or damaged. These worn-out cells are then phagocytized by a type of myeloid phagocytic cell called a macrophage. Macrophages located within the spleen, liver, and bone marrow perform this task efficiently. The spleen acts as a blood filter and also serves as a reservoir for immune factors, whereas the liver processes the components of the degraded erythrocytes' hemoglobin, turning them into bile pigments for excretion.

The kidneys also play a vital role in the circulatory system by filtering the blood, removing waste products and excessive or free hemoglobin, especially during hemolysis, where RBCs are broken down and their hemoglobin is released into the bloodstream, but the primary role in the removal of old RBCs lies with the spleen and liver.

Final answer:

The correct answer is B, where the two atria relax while the two ventricles contract. This represents the ventricular systole phase of the cardiac cycle, in which the ventricles contract to pump blood while the atria are relaxed, filling with blood.

Explanation:

The cardiac cycle consists of a period of relaxation known as diastole followed by a period of contraction called systole. During diastole, the heart muscle is relaxed and blood flows into the heart. At this time, the right and left atria are relaxed and the right and left ventricles are also relaxed, allowing blood to flow from the atria to the ventricles through open atrioventricular valves. At the end of diastole, the atria contract (atrial systole), enhancing the filling of the ventricles. Following this, the ventricles contract (ventricular systole), which forces blood out of the heart to the lungs and the rest of the body. This sequence is carefully regulated to ensure efficient blood pumping.

Given the choices in the question and the facts presented, the correct answer is B. The two atria relax while the two ventricles contract. This phase corresponds to ventricular systole, where the right and left ventricles contract to pump blood into the pulmonary artery and aorta, respectively, while the atria are in their diastole (relaxing) phase to receive blood from the body and the lungs.

Answer:

a.) The deep cups created by the tibial condyles help to stabilize the joint.

Explanation:

The incorrect statement about the knee is 'The deep cups created by the tibial condyles help to stabilize the joint.' The knee is primarily stabilized by ligaments and muscles, not by the tibial condyles.

The incorrect statement about the knee is the first option (a). The tibial condyles do form part of the knee joint, but they do not create deep cups to stabilize the joint. Instead, the knee joint is stabilized by other structures such as ligaments and muscles. The tibial condyles articulate with the femoral condyles to form the knee joint.

In contrast, options (b), (c), and (d) are all correct. Bursae in the knee do secrete synovial fluid to lubricate the joint and reduce friction. The knee is indeed vulnerable to lateral forces that can cause injury. And several ligaments do cross the knee to stabilize the joint in several directions.
