Which neurotransmitter is associated with the control of the pain response?
Endorphins
Which neurotransmitter helps your body return to normal after the stress response?
The neurotransmitter that helps the body return to normal after a stress response is the noradrenaline. It is also used to raise blood pressure.
What neurotransmitter stimulates the fight or flight response?
Norepinephrine and epinephrine (adrenaline).

How much physical activity does the body need to produce endorphins?
The brain produces endorphins which act as painkillers. The body produces them in response to stressful events such as unavoidable electric shocks, sudden injury, or when pregnant women go into labour
Which neurotransmitter is associated with the control of the pain response?
Endorphins
What are neurotransmitters that affect a neuron's response to other neurotransmitters called?
These are typically known as neuromodulators; they can either change the rate at which a neurotransmitter is released, or alter the response to a certain neurotransmitters.
This substance is released in response to pain in order to control it?
Endorphins
What is Manufactured by the brain to help relieve pain?
The brain releases endorphins in response to pain. These endorphins are a lot like the man-made pain-killer morphine.
What does pet therapy do?
There is also evidence that petting an animal can cause endorphins to be released. Endorphins are chemicals in the body that suppress the pain response.
Which neurotransmitter helps your body return to normal after the stress response?
The neurotransmitter that helps the body return to normal after a stress response is the noradrenaline. It is also used to raise blood pressure.
Compound that influences a postsynaptic cell's response to a neurotransmitter?
neuromodulator
What neurotransmitter stimulates the fight or flight response?
Norepinephrine and epinephrine (adrenaline).
What determines whether the response of a receiving neuron is excitatory or inhibitory?
The type of neurotransmitter.
What is the difference between presynaptic and postsynaptic neurons?
Presynaptic neurons release the neurotransmitter in response to an action potential. Postsynaptic neurons receive the neurotransmitter (and can however become presynaptic to the next nerve cell, if the neurotransmitter has stimulated the cell enough).
What does exercise do to the prodction of endorphins?
Exercise helps to increase the production and release of endorphins. This is part of the sympathetic response of the body also sometimes called the flight-or-fright response that prepares the body for coping with danger. In the case of endorphins they reduce the sensation of pain so the person can keep fighting or running away hopefully long enough to reduce or eliminate the stressful threat, or just a normal result of physical activity is that some endorphins will be released. Sometimes this is called the 'runner's high.'
