    D) Gamma Amino Butyric Acid (GABA)

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Alzhimer disease in humans is associated with the deficiency of acetylcholine. Alzhimer's Disease (AD) is an irreversible, progressive disorder, in which brain cells (neurons) deteriorate, resulting in the loss of cognitive functions, primarily memory, judgement and reasoning, movement coordination and pattern recognition. In advanced stages of the disease, all memory and mental functioning may be lost. Dopamine and glutamic acid are excitatory neurotransmitters, while Gama Amino Butyric Acid (GABA) is inhibitory neurotransmitter.
