Answer:

The correct option is d. it causes exchange diffusion

Amphetamine increases extracellular concentrations of serotonin by displacing the neurotransmitter from its specific presynaptic transporter. When amphetamine binds to serotonin transporters, on the one hand it prevents it from entering the terminal and on the other it reverses the recapture mechanism so that serotonin leaves the synaptic space.
