Nootropic drug use is becoming increasingly popular among students on University campuses around the world. The most common network target(s) of these drug cocktails is (choose correct ending): increasing serotonin signaling activities in the brain increasing GABA signaling in the dopamine pathway increasing norepinephrine and increasing acetylcholine behavioral modification network activities in the brain increasing dopamine behavioral modification network activities in the brain

Briefly describe our brain's mesolimbic dopamine system. (A) Which brain structures are involved in this system? (B) What type of behavior does it regulate? (C) Even though social media (or video games and the like) isn't something ingested, do you think this system is involved in our social media behavior? Or do you think something else is involved? Please provide a brief, but specific response. Answer as much as you can please!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!
Cocaine operates as a __________________________, leading to feelings of euphoria, as well as physical and mental alertness. A. acetylcholine (ACh) antagonist B. dopamine agonist C. dopamine reuptake antagonist D. Tendency to seek out social interaction, and sensitivity to positive emotions like joy, hope, anticipation, and excitement E. acetylcholine (ACh) reuptake agonist
The behaviours associated with cocaine use mimic some of the symptoms of schizophrenia because: Question 53 options: a) Cocaine increases serotonergic transmission in the prefrontal cortex b) Cocaine increases dopamine binding at D2 receptors in the mesocortical tract c) Cocaine increases the reuptake of serotonin in the tuberoinfundibular tract d) Cocaine decreases dopamine binding at D2 receptors in the nigrostriatal tract
Which of the following are true about the motivation control system? The dopamine reward system promotes survival of the organism The nucleus accumbens provides direct input to the basal ganglia to promote motor behavior Engaging in a behavior that promotes survival causes the VTA to release dopamine in the nucleus accumbens Group of answer choices I only III only II and III I and III I, II and III
The neurotransmitter that (1) is involved in controlling aggression, (2) implicated in depression, anxiety, PTSD (3) sythesized in neurons from tyrosine, and (4) the target of atypical antipsychotic drugs is serotonin dopamine norepinephrine glutamate
Discuss what we know about both of the two main hypotheses (potential targets) for the origin of schizophrenia. LTP is the part of the learning process by which our synapses are strengthened. Using the example of hippocampal circuitry (LP can happen elsewhere in the brain), 1) draw and label the hippocampal circuitry, indicating the direction of the signaling, 2) describe the conditions required for LTP, and 3) draw a graph to show how EPSP magnitude is affected and explain what the long term implications are.

PAG; nucleus accumbens; preoptic area. B. Preoptic area; nucleus accumbens; PAG. C. nucleus accumbens; PAG; preoptic area. D. nucleus accumbens; preoptic area; PAG. E. nucleus accumbens; reticular formation; substantia nigra.
