What does the synaptic knobs of the presynaptic neuron contain synaptic vesicles loaded with?

To provide energy for the re-combination of Choline and ethanoic acid, to form Acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is used as a neurotransmitter, and gets broken down after its reached the sodium channels' receptors on the post-synaptic membrane by acetylcholinease.


What exactly is aspartate?

Aspartate is an amino acid that is used by the body to synthesize proteins. It is also involved in various metabolic processes such as energy production and neurotransmitter synthesis. Aspartate is found in many protein-rich foods like meat, fish, dairy products, and legumes.


What organelle builds amino acids?

organells's are not directly responisble for amino acid synthesis. production of amino acids occur in the cytosol, but only when the organism criticly needs them!! Amino acids are primarily obtained by the breakdown of proteins and not produced from scratch. This is because it requires far too much energy in the reaction pathways for the sythesis of the amino acid, as well as the special enzymes that are needed to catylise these processes. the genes that code for the production of these enzymes are very rarely used.


Which 'neurotransmitters' excite energy and inhibit lethargy?

I am not an expert in this field, but we did study psychiatric disorders recently in my nursing classes. The neurotransmitter serotonin controls mood and sleep (among other things), and when you decrease its levels (or if uptake is blocked), people end up with clinical depression. Antidepressants work to increase serotonin (or increase its uptake). Also, GABA (gamma-Aminobutyric acid) is an inhibitory neurotransmitter that regulates excitability in the nervous system. So if there is too little GABA present, the hormones that cause excitability run wild and you end up with anxiety (overstimulation). Anxiolytics (anti-anxiety meds) work to increase GABA, which inhibits that excitabililty and slows those anxious feelings.


Is chemical energy kinetic energy or potential energy?

It is a form of potential energy.

What transport methods require energy expenditure by the cell?

active transport reguire energy.


Why do people get cranky when they're tired?

Neurotransmitter depletion, which means they don't have enough energy to handle what happens around them.


Why do synaptic knobs contain many mitochondria?

mitochondria provide adenosine triphosphate (ATP) which in turn supplies the energy for synthesizing new neurotransmitter or transmitter substance.


How does a machine cause you to expend more energy?

If it is inefficient, causing more input then output, or wasteful, eg: a hydrogen converter with a reuptake adapter reusing purified hydrogen but losing the bulk of the material.


How does the feeling of energy for activity and mental clarity arise as opposed to fatigue and feeling cloudy mentally what role does diet play as opposed to neurotransmitter activity?

Chemical toxins as well as refined foods can make one feel tired and mentally cloudy.Lots of fruits, vegetables, protein, and unrefined complex carbohydrates help give you energy.


What is another name for light dependent reations of photosynthesis?

The exergonic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy (photosynthesis). The product of light dependant reactions is called endergonic reaction. It is a chemical reaction that requires energy.

Is a postsynaptic potential a graded potential that is the result if a neurotransmitter released into the synapse between two neurons?

Yes it is true that graded potential can be called postsynaptic potentials. When a sensory neuron is excited by some form of energy, the resulting graded potential is called generator potential.


Is tapentadol stronger than percocet?

Im prescribed 100mgs of tapentadol and i would say with a low tolerance it can feel like 10 mg of percocet or like 30-40 mgs of hydro on an empty stomach with a low tolerance. SO to answer your question pretty much with an added energy effect from the norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor.


Is 60mg of Adderall and 20 mg of lexipro a good combination to take for depression low energy and weight loss?

Adderal is not a weight lossdrug. It is for ADHD and ADD. Amphetamines prescribed for weight loss were banned in 1972 and use for depression has not been approved.Dopamine is a neurotransmitter found in the brain-not the bloodstream. Lexapro affects Seratonin-another neurotransmitter in the brain.Are you depressed because of your weight? NOT a good reason to take these powerful drugs.There is never a good reason to take any drugs that have not been specifically prescribed by a medical professional for your use.
