Vedclass · Answer

(B) $Amanita \ muscaria$ is a member of Class $Basidiomycetes$. It is a poisonous mushroom and possesses hallucinogenic properties. It produces toxic alkaloids such as muscarine,which mimics the effects of acetylcholine and binds to muscarinic receptors,as well as ibotenic acid,which binds to different receptors. This interaction leads to the excitation of neurons bearing these receptors,resulting in hallucinations.
