3) short-term effects include an increase in consciousness; long-term effects include a decrease in consciousness due to pharmacodynamic tolerance

Explanation:

If this is the original question:

Which of the following is accurate regarding the short-term effects and then the long-term effect of sympathomimetics?

1) short-term effects include a decrease in consciousness; long-term effects include a decrease I consciousness due to pharmacodynamic tolerance

2) short-term effects include an increase in consciousness; there are no long-term effects

3) short-term effects include an increase in consciousness; long-term effects include a decrease in consciousness due to pharmacodynamic tolerance

Sympathomimetic drug mimics the effect of adrenaline; it stimulates the sympathetic nervous system. Some of the drugs are amphetamine, methamphetamine, speed , ecstasy ,cocaine.

Short - term effect could be speeding up the heart rate; increasing sweat production, increasing rate of breathing.

Long - term effect could be (increased risk of) heart disease/coronary thrombosis; (risk of) becoming addicted/physically dependent; (increased risk of) (lung/mouth/throat) cancer; (increased risk of) bronchitis/emphysema; reduction in capacity of blood to carry oxygen; withdrawal symptoms/weight gain (on quitting) etc.

answer; the above is a (true) statement;

Answer from: Quest

the aorta is the large artery leaving the heart branches into smaller arteries, which eventually branch into capillaries.the arteries carry oxygen and nutrients away from your heart, to your body's tissues. the capillaries are small, thin blood vessels that connect the arteries and the veins. the statement that arteries carry oxygen-rich blood to capillaries is true. veins on the other hand are blood vessels that take oxygen-poor blood back to the heart.

The herpes viruses are important enveloped dna viruses that cause disease in vertebrates and in some invertebrates such as oysters. some of the human forms are herpes simplex virus (hsv) types i and ii, causing facial and genital lesions, and the varicella zoster virus (vsv), causing chicken pox and shingles. each of these three actively infects nervous tissue. primary infections are fairly mild, but the virus is not then cleared from the host; rather, viral genomes are maintained in cells in a latent phase. the virus can later reactivate, replicate again, and infect others.in electron micrographs of hsv infection, it can be seen that the intact virus initially reacts with cell surface proteoglycans, then with specific receptors. this is later followed by viral capsids docking with nuclear pores. afterward, the capsids go from being full to being "empty." which of the following best fits these observations? a) viral capsids are needed for the cell to become infected; only the capsids enter the nucleus.b) the viral envelope is not required for infectivity, since the envelope does not enter the nucleus.c) only the genetic material of the virus is involved in the cell's infectivity, and is injected like the genome of a phage.d) the viral envelope mediates entry into the cell, the capsid mediates entry into the nuclear membrane, and the genome is all that enters the nucleus.
