Question

while looking at slides of brain tissue in a physiology class, you see groups of damaged neurons that have collected around a core. what are you looking at? a. neurotransmitters b. neuritic plaques c. neurofibrillary tangles d. selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors

Explanation:

When looking at brain - tissue slides showing damaged neurons and a core, proteins like neurofibrillary tangles are often associated with neurodegenerative conditions where damaged neurons are present. Neurons communicate via neurotransmitters, but they are not the proteins being looked for in this context. Neural plaques are also related to neurodegeneration but not the best answer here. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are drugs, not proteins.

Answer:

C. Neurofibrillary tangles
