Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Rationale: In classical conditioning, an organism shows a species-typical behavior in response to a previously unimportant stimulus.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: No one area is the final controller of eating. Sensory and motor information from the gut is sent to the brain stem, where basic feeding reflexes are controlled. Forebrain circuits arising from the lateral hypothalamus can act via MCH and orexins to facilitate eating, and this region appears to be sensitive to the orexigenic effects of NPY. Cells within the arcuate nucleus secrete both NPY and agouti-related peptide (AGRP), which acts as an antagonist at MC-4R receptors that normally function to inhibit eating. Thus NPY and AGRP stimulate eating. A common finding is that a specific neuropeptide may exert dual actions: namely, facilitating actions in one pathway (e.g., MCH/orexin) and inhibiting activity in the other pathway (e.g., NPY/AGRP). Leptin can inhibit NPY activity and can activate cells that express CART.

More than 2,500 barbiturates have been synthesized. At the height of their popularity, about 50 were marketed for human use.

Did you know?

Street names for barbiturates include reds, red devils, yellow jackets, blue heavens, Christmas trees, and rainbows. They are commonly referred to as downers.

Did you know?

The lipid bilayer is made of phospholipids. They are arranged in a double layer because one of their ends is attracted to water while the other is repelled by water.

Did you know?

Children of people with alcoholism are more inclined to drink alcohol or use hard drugs. In fact, they are 400 times more likely to use hard drugs than those who do not have a family history of alcohol addiction.

Did you know?

Barbituric acid, the base material of barbiturates, was first synthesized in 1863 by Adolph von Bayer. His company later went on to synthesize aspirin for the first time, and Bayer aspirin is still a popular brand today.
