3 ways neurotransmitters can be removed:
1. Reuptake- reabsorption of the neurotransmitter into the neuron.
2. Enzymatic degradation- destruction of the neurotransmitter with special chemicals called enzymes.
3. Diffusion- The neurotransmitter becoming detached from the receptor and drifting out of the synaptic cleft.

How is transmission across the synapse halted?
There are three ways to end chemical signaling across a synapse. In some cases, the neurotransmitter molecules simply diffuse away from the synapse. In others, enzymes located in the synaptic gap deactivate the neurotransmitters. Finally, neurotransmitters are taken up by the releasing neuron in a process known as reuptake.
Do neurons or neuroglia release neurotransmitters?
Neurons release neurotransmitters, not neuroglia. Neuroglia, also known as glial cells, primarily support and protect neurons in various ways, but they do not release neurotransmitters like neurons do.
What are two ways the drugs affect the brain chemistry?
increases and decreases the amount of neurotransmitters
What are wo ways that liquid waste is removed from your body?
Two ways that liquid waste is removed from your body... sweating and urination
What do neurotransmitters open?
Neurotransmitters act on synapses.
How does the brain help your feeling?
There are a number of ways that the brain helps your feelings. One of these ways involves the use of the body's neurotransmitters, which are nerve cells that pass notes through the body to the brain.
How do drugs affect the process of synaptic transmission?
They can act in a number of ways, both presynaptically and postsynaptically. They can affect how vescicles release neurotransmitters, how neurotransmitters are cleaved/reuptake, they can block receptors, destroy receptors, agonistically bind to receptors which mimics the neurotransmitter. These are a few.
Example of neurotransmitter?
Neurotransmitters are chemicals that transport information across the synaptic cleft between neurons. These chemicals are utilized to send a wide variety of messages. The three main types of neurotransmitters are monoamines, amino acids, and peptides.
What Neurotransmitters are implicated in depressive disorders?
There are many different neurotransmitters believed to be involved in mental ill-health. Dopamine is one neurotransmitter believed to be involved in Schizophrenia. Serotonin is another which is involved in Schizophrenia as well as OCD (this in no way suggests that Schizophrenia and OCD are connected).
What neurotransmitters are amino acids?
define amino acids in neurotransmitters
Which structure in the body releases neurotransmitters?
Neurons release neurotransmitters.
What does an axon release when an impulse reaches the end of it?
Neurotransmitters to the synapse and the neurotransmitters bind with the receptors releasing the second messengers.
