Sub plans for Friday 2-4

Hello class,  Here's the assessment statements.

First:  IB lab will be due on Wednesday of this coming week.  Call it a snow day extension.

   
E.4.4   List three examples of excitatory and three examples of inhibitory psychoactive drugs.  

•     Excitatory drugs: nicotine, cocaine and amphetamines

•          Inhibitory drugs: benzodiazepines, alcohol and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).

   E.4.5  Explain the effects in terms of their action at synapses in 
        the brain.of

THC and Cocaine

What better way to investigate this than by observing drug-addled partiers.  Check out this site, if you dare!  The red terms can be viewed directly on this site.  (crystal meth works like amphetamines) (THC = marijuana).

I'd like you to read the rest of section 45.3 on cocaine and nicotine, also.
