Answer: A.Caffeine
Explanation:
Caffeine works by blocking adenosine, a neurotransmitter that promotes sleep. This makes us feel more awake and alert. It's the most commonly used psychoactive substance and is found in many everyday items like coffee and medicines.
The actual mechanism of A) Caffeine is to block chemicals that inhibit or slow nerve activity in the brain. Caffeine functions as an adenosine antagonist, meaning it inhibits the adenosine receptors. Adenosine is a neurotransmitter that promotes sleep, so caffeine's effect reduces sleepiness and enhances alertness.
This mechanism allows caffeine to indirectly increase adrenergic activity (energy release), promoting a more energetic state. While caffeine is often associated with increased alertness and arousal, it's important to remember that it's acting primarily by blocking the inhibiting effect of certain chemicals on the brain nerve activity.
It's noteworthy that caffeine, as the world's most widely consumed psychoactive drug, is unregulated, found in everyday items like beverages and medicines, and generally not harmful in moderation.

Answer:
During the process of spoiling, the coumarins in sweet clover are converted to toxic dicumarol, a potent vitamin K antagonist and anticoagulant. Any method of hay storage that allows molding of sweet clover promotes the likelihood of formation of dicumarol in the hay.
