Presentation Questions Ecstasy 1. Explain how the brain normally regulates serotonin. How does ecstasy act in the brain‚ & what neurotransmitters does it affect? - Normally‚ the brain regulates serotonin (5-HT) by taking up the release in neighboring neurons. - With ecstasy‚ the neuron is still supplied with 5-HT directly. However‚ ecstasy MIMICS 5-HT by blocking the reuptake of serotonin‚ [causing the release of high levels of 5-HT into the synapse]‚ which induces euphoria & the

Research objectives are the goals of the research study. Research objectives specify the reason researchers are conducting research. For example‚ researchers may want to better understand the difference in pain scale results among subjects with a diagnosis of moderate traumatic brain injury. In this case the research objective would cause researchers to take steps to conduct scientific analysis to determine the variations in pain experienced between a group of individuals without a diagnosis of TBI
