Dmitry [639]

Answer:

 

Explanation:

The chemical messengers present in the body are known as neurotransmitters. These are the chemicals that the nervous system uses to send and receive information between neurons and muscles. A neurotransmitter can have one of three effects on a neuron:

Excitatory effect, Inhibitory effect, and/or Modulatory effect.

The list of neurotransmitters and their roles are as follows:

Glutamate: This is present in amino acid compounds which are located in the synapses. It functions as an excitatory neurotransmitter, causing neurons to discharge instructions when stimulated in the central nervous system.

Adrenaline: It helps to respond to body's psychological stress and protection mechanism. They are positioned above the kidney and are created by the adrenal glands. They operate throughout the central nervous system and swiftly increase your heart rate and provide oxygen to your muscles.

Serotonin: Serotonin is a crucial brain neurotransmitter that also has a role in the small intestine. In your digestive tract, serotonin increases feelings of contentment after eating and controls your appetite. When you eat anything that doesn't agree with your stomach, serotonin assists your body in getting rid of it.
