Answer: C_6H_{12}O_6

Explanation: Photosynthesis is a phenomenon in which green plants containing chlorophyll use sunlight as a source of energy to convert carbon dioxide and water to form glucose and oxygen.

Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and certain bacteria to convert energy from sunlight and turn it into chemical energy in the form of glucose which is used a s a source of energy by many organisms.

The balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis is written as :

6CO_2+6H_2O\overset{sunlight}\rightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Melatonin

Explanation:

  • Melatonin is the hormone that is produced by the pineal gland in response to the dark and light cycle.
  • The pineal gland is turned on when there is darkness and turned off when there is light.
  • When it's dark, the pineal gland becomes active and produces melatonin leading to an increase in the melatonin levels in the blood and a person starts to feel more sleepy and the levels of melatonin remain in the blood for about 12 hours after which they fall and the state of wakefulness occurs.
  • The levels of melatonin fall sharply in the presence of bright light.
  • Thus, the melatonin hormone is responsible for controlling the sleep-wake cycle.

An undersupply of the major inhibitory neurotransmitter known as ________ is linked to seizures.
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)

Explanation:

Epileptic seizures are induced by a preponderance of electrical activity within the network of neurons in the brain. Synapsis is the meeting point between the axon of one neuron and the dendrite of another neuron. Electrical signals don't cross through the synapsis, instead, they are conveyed in a chemical form by neurotransmitters.

The neurotransmitters convey messages across the synapsis in a chemical form until they find to the receptor of the dendrite of the receiving neuron. Neurotransmitters can either be excitatory or inhibitory in function i.e. the receiving neuron can either be stimulated to action or inhibited from action. The main excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters in the brain are Glutamate and Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) respectively.

There must be a balance between excitation and inhibition of neurons, in order to ascertain the optimal functioning of the brain. Too much Glutamate or too little of GABA can make neurons hyperexcitable and hyperexcitability of neurons makes the brain susceptible to seizures.
