2. The undesirable effects of epinephrine are short lived because of the rapid inactivation of epinephrine by the reuptake of adrenergic nerves. A. The statement is NOT correct, but the reason is correct. B. NEITHER the statement NOR the reason is correct. C. Both the statement and reason are correct and related. D. Both the statement and reason are correct but NOT related. E. The statement is correct, but the reason is NOT.

Which of these statements about catecholamines is false? a. They include norepinephrine, epinephrine, and dopamine. b. Their effects are increased by the action of the enzyme catechol-O-methyltransferase. c. They are inactivated by monoamine oxidase. d. They are inactivated by reuptake into the presynaptic axon. e. They may stimulate the production of cyclic AMP in the postsynaptic axon.

Select ALL statements that are TRUE regarding a drug that would inactivate the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. a) Prevent acetylcholine from being loaded into synaptic vesicles. b) Speed up the synthesis of acetylcholine. c) Reduce the reuptake of choline back into the axon terminal. d) Terminate the effects of acetylcholine in the synapse. e) Prolong the effects of acetylcholine in the synapse. 2. Select All statements that are TRUE regarding the effects of administering a molecule that is a precursor for the synthesis of a neurotransmitter. a) Block the reuptake of the neurotransmitter back into the axon terminal. b) Act as an indirect antagonist by activating autoreceptors. c) Temporarily compensate for neuron cell death by increased release of the neurotransmitter (ex. L-dopa used as treatment for Parkinson's disease). d) Increase the rate of synthesis of that neurotransmitter. e) Immediately alter the number of postsynaptic receptors.
