Question
Chapter 28, Problem 28.70AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
One example for the drug which can act as an agonist and one example for the drug which can act as an antagonist for the acetylcholine have to be listed.
Concept Introduction:
Drugs: Drugs are molecules which are taken from an external source to change the normal functioning of the body. The action of drug is in molecular level and the design of many drugs are in such a way that it mimics a particular neurotransmitter or hormone. Drugs bind with receptors showing an increased or decreased effect.
There are two types of drugs and they are agonist and antagonist.
Examples for agonist are black widow spider and nicotine whereas examples for antagonist are tubocurarine, atropine

What is the importance of glutamic acid in the metabolism of nitrogen from amino acids? (we know therole; it’s used to remove the nitrogen from amino acids so that the remaining carbon skeleton can bebroken down by the “usual” pathways, but what is the important, unique role that only glutamicacid/glutamate can do?)
