You are performing an experiment in Aplysia where you inhibit the serotonin GPCR in the siphon sensory neuron and then induce habituation followed by sensitization (tail shock).  After the tail shock, you touch the syphon.  Compared to the situation with ACTIVE serotonin GPCRs, what will happen when the serotonin GPCRs are INHIBTED in the siphon sensory neuron?

What are the trends in the white and grey matter volume during human childhood (7-20 years) development? 

You’re performing an experiment with mice that have a mutation that causes them to OVEREXPRESS CaMKII in their hippocampus – you want to study how this mutation affects learning. To do this, you make the mutant mice perform the Morris water maze test. Compared to normal mice without this mutation, which of the following would you expect to be true regarding the mutant mice and their performance in the water maze? 

Synapsin proteins are used in which stage of synaptic transmission?

Critical periods are important for the development of basic behaviors such as eating and mating
