Suppose the re-uptake of a specific neurotransmitter were deficient and the deactivation enzymes
associated with the neurotransmitter were also deficient. What effect would this have?
A) There would be more of the neurotransmitter in the synapse.
B) There would be less of the neurotransmitter in the synapse.
C) The neurons would become especially sensitive to the neurotransmitter.
D) Since the two deficiencies would balance each other out, there would be no change in the levels of
the neurotransmitter.
