Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

C
Dopamine is a biogenic amine. Biogenic amines are synthesized either from a common amino acid (tyrosine or histadine) or from one of the other biogenic amines. However, tyrosine and histidine are in reality neurotransmitter precursors but are not themselves neurotransmitters.
