Morphine and naloxone exert their effects in the nervous system by binding (directly) to _____ receptors.
opioid
dopamine

Phenytoin (sodium channel blocker) and ethosuximide (calcium channel blocker) are anti-seizure drugs that stop seizures from happening. These drugs work by inhibiting electrical impulses (action potentials) from occurring. Explain the reasons why action potentials do not occur when these channels are inhibited.
