Summary Introduction

To review:

The functions of G-proteins in synaptic transmission and the advantages of G-proteins mediating the effects of a neurotransmitter.

Introduction:

G-proteins or guanine nucleotide-binding proteins belong to the protein family that work as molecular switches inside the cells and participate in the transmission of signals from outside environment to the inside. Synaptic transmission is the synapse present between the presynaptic neuron and the target cells where the neurotransmitters are released.

Q8. A researcher wants to study the effectiveness of a pill intended to reduce stomach heartburn in pregnant women. The researcher chooses randomly 400 women to participate in this experiment for 9 months of their pregnancy period. They all need to have the same diet.
