Reuptake refers to the REABSORPTION of excess neurotransmitter molecules by a sending neuron (Option b).

Reuptake is the mechanism by which cells reabsorb chemical messengers produced and secreted by them. In nerve terminals, reuptake is used to reabsorb released neurotransmitters.

The reuptake mechanism is exploited in therapeutics for the development of target drugs and treatments.

Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that acts to stabilize different emotions such as mood, feelings of well-being, appetite and happiness.

For example, serotonin reuptake inhibitors which are capable of blocking the reuptake of serotonin to modulate serotonin brain levels have recently been developed.

Answer:

Addition reactions with benzenes lead to the loss of aromaticity.

Benzene and its derivatives undergo a type of substitution reaction in which a hydrogen atom is replaced by a substituent, but the stable aromatic benzene ring is regenerated at the end of the mechanism.

Benzene and its derivatives tend to undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions.
