Question

Caffeine, nicotine and alcohol all have effects on A. Neurotransmitter reuptake B. Synaptic activity C. Neurotransmitter degradation D. Longtime potentiation E. Action potential conduction Caffeine, nicotine and alcohol all have effects on A. Neurotransmitter reuptake B. Synaptic activity C. Neurotransmitter degradation D. Longtime potentiation E. Action potential conduction A. Neurotransmitter reuptake B. Synaptic activity C. Neurotransmitter degradation D. Longtime potentiation E. Action potential conduction

Explanation / Answer

Answer

Option D is the right answer because caffeine and nicotine enhance the longtime potentiation( LTP) and alcohol inhibits the longtime potentiation. longtime potentiation is an increase synaptic producing a long-lasting increment in the signal transduction between two neurons. So LTP associated with long and short term memory function of the brain.
