Homework Answers
1. Methamphetamine alters dopamine neurotransmission by
- damaging to the dopaminergic and serotonergic systems, marked by decreases in the dopamine (DA) and serotonin.
- blocking the dopamine transporter from pumping dopamine back into the transmitting neuron.
2. Methamphetamine causes an increase of N+ Cl- in certain areas of the brain.
Thus all the options are correct

INFORMATION ABOUT IMAGE G FOR QUESTIONS 12-15:
GABAB receptors (GABABRs) are
G-protein-coupled receptors that can be found on both pre- and
postsynaptic neurons. When they are activated by GABA, they can
have a range of effects. For the synapse you are studying in the
following questions, the effects of GABABRs are
indicated in IMAGE G.
You are doing a series of experiments in which you are recording
from the pre- and postsynaptic cell at a synapse. The experiments
described below...

How can these completely unrelated hormones that bind to distinct GPCRs do this? A. Both the glucagon and β-adrenergic receptors activate Gαo. B. Both the glucagon and β-adrenergic receptors activate Gαi. C. Both the glucagon and β-adrenergic receptors activate Gαs. D. The glucagon receptor activates Gαs and the β-adrenergic receptor activates Gαo. E. The glucagon receptor activates Gαo and the β-adrenergic receptor...
