Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below. Certain words/phrases have
been printed in bold to help you locate them
Caffeine, the stimulant in coffee, has been called ? “the most widely used psychoactive substance on
Earth”. Snyder, Daly and Bruns have recently proposed that caffeine affect behavior by countering the
activity in the human brain of a naturally occurring chemical called adenosine. Adenosine normally
depresses neuron firing in many areas of the brain. It apparently does this by inhibiting the release of
neurotransmitters, chemicals that carry nerve impulses from one neuron to the next. Like many other agents
that affect neuron firing, adenosine must first bind to specific receptors on neuronal membranes. There are
at least two classes of these receptors, which have been designated A1 and A2. Snyder et al propose that
caffeine, which is structurally similar to adenosine, is able to bind to both types of receptors, which prevents
adenosine from attaching there and allows the neurons to fire more readily than they otherwise would. For
many years, caffeine‘s effects have been attributed to its inhibition of the production of phosphodiesterase,
an enzyme that breaks down the chemical called cyclic AMP. A number of neurotransmitters exert their
effects by first increasing cyclic AMP concentrations in target neurons. Therefore, prolonged periods at the
elevated concentrations, as might be brought about by a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, could lead to a greater
amount of neuron firing and, consequently, to behavioral stimulation. But Snyder et al point out that the
caffeine concentrations needed to inhibit the production of phosphodiesterase in the brain are much higher
than those that produce stimulation. Moreover, other compounds that block phosphodiesterase‘s activity are
not stimulants. To buttress their case that caffeine acts instead by preventing adenosine binding, Snyder et
al compared the stimulatory effects of a series of caffeine derivatives with their ability to dislodge adenosine
from its receptors in the brains of mice. ?”In general”, they reported, ?”the ability of the compounds to
compete at the receptors correlates with their ability to stimulate locomotion in the mouse; i.e., the higher
their capacity to bind at the receptors, the higher their ability to stimulate locomotion”. Theophylline, a close
structural relative of caffeine and the major stimulant in tea, was one of the most effective compounds in
both regards. There were some apparent exceptions to the general correlation observed between
adenosine-receptor binding and stimulation. One of these was a compound called 3-isobutyl-1-
methylxanthine (IBMX), which bound very well but actually depressed mouse locomotion. Snyder et al
suggests that this is not a major stumbling block to their hypothesis. The problem is that the compound has
mixed effects in the brain, a not unusual occurrence with psychoactive drugs. Even caffeine, which is
generally known only for its stimulatory effects, displays this property, depressing mouse locomotion at very
low concentrations and stimulating it at higher ones.

21. The primary purpose of the passage is to ?

discuss a plan for investigation of a phenomenon that is not yet fully understood
present two explanations of a phenomenon and reconcile the differences between them
summarize two theories and suggest a third theory that overcomes the problems encountered in the
first two
describe an alternative hypothesis and provide evidence and arguments that support it
challenge the validity of a theory by exposing the inconsistencies and contradictions in it

22. Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the theory proposed by Snyderetal?

At very low concentrations in the human brain, both caffeine and theophylline tend to have depressive
rather than stimulatory effects on human behavior.
The ability of caffeine derivatives at very low concentrations to dislodge adenosine from its receptors
in mouse brains correlates well with their ability to stimulate mouse locomotion at these low concentrations.
The concentration of cyclic AMP in target neurons in the human brain that leads to increased neuron
firing can be produced by several different phosphodiesterase inhibitors in addition to caffeine.
The concentration of caffeine required to dislodge adenosine from its receptors in the human brain is
much greater than the concentration that produces behavioral stimulation in humans.
The concentration of IBMX required to dislodge adenosine from its receptors in mouse brains is much
smaller than the concentration that stimulates locomotion in the mouse.

23. According so Snyder et al, caffeine differs from adenosine in that caffeine

stimulates behavior in the mouse and in humans, whereas adenosine stimulates behavior in humans
only
has mixed effects in the brain, whereas adenosine has only a stimulatory effect
increases cyclic AMP concentrations in target neurons, whereas adenosine decreases such
concentrations
permits release of neurotransmitters when it is bound to adenosine receptors, whereas adenosine
inhibits such release
inhibits both neuron firing and the production of phosphodiesterase when there is a sufficient
concentration in the brain, whereas adenosine inhibits only neuron firing

24. In response to experimental results concerning IBMX, Snyder et al contended that it is not uncommon

close structural relationships with caffeine
depressive effects on mouse locomotion
the ability to dislodge caffeine from receptors in the brain

25. The passage suggests that Snyder et al believe that if the older theory concerning caffeine’s effects
were correct, which of the following would have to be the case?
I. All neurotransmitters would increase the short-term concentration of cyclic AMP in target neurons.
II. Substances other than caffeine that inhibit the production of phosphodiesterase would be stimulants.
III. All concentration levels of caffeine that are high enough to produce stimulation would also inhibit the
production of phosphodiesterase.
