“A-meeeeee-know acids” thanks for the outstanding video Squidward!!!!

[@melissarainchild]

Squidward is Sponge Bob's victim...ever looked at it that way? I hate the cartoon because of Sponge Bob...

[@elsiebassey3575]

[@inclusiveschool9224]

Great video I wish my channel could have a video as good as this

[@okuhleminyi8143]

This is hilariously out of pocket.

[@melissarainchild]

Okay, by far the greatest video so far. My info states more categories..but this is helpful at any rate. Thank you very much...

[@McBoomFly]

This is so helpful. Thank you! I absolutely love this.

[@annn2989]

Thank you for the lesson! It’s easy for me to understand & remember.

[@annaverhaegh6712]

Basic stuff. Wish first year lectures were made this simple! 2nd year psychology major at uni, looking forward to getting into clinical psych soon. This was kind of a good recap, on what I thought I had forgotten.

[@elihueliot]

first year psy major here! also looking into the clinical branch

[@TheDarp95]

Very instructional bird's eye view!

[@annalisette5897]

Wonderful video. Thank you, Khan Academy!

[@nikitamaurya6644]

That was very helpful thank you so much

[@raspberry765]

I have never seen a star drawn like that. Awesome video as always, thanks!

[@mondepriscillasuya4280]

So helpful ☺️

[@thefenerbahcesk4156]

I heard in Biochem the other day neurotransmitters are actually made from amino acids. That's pretty cool

[@TheChats02]

Thank you. This is really good.

[@marthacmd]

good job

[@christinevakas92]

Thank you

[@rohansingh1600]

Can anyone give me the link or the detailed video on neurotransmitters

[@theminguinhox]

thanks

[@darkdante6602]

Hello, where can I find a full list of neurotransmitters atleast over a hundred list

[@jifuniversal7653]

thank

[@reham9412]

Are monoamines a subgroup of amines, which contains Acetylcholine, Dopamine, Norepinephrine, Serotinin, Histamine, and Epinephrine?

[@mysteriousfuntv8450]

It's actually vice versa

[@shumaelstrom]

"Here here here here here and here"

[@da6540]

👍 ✨✨✨thanks a lot

[@polarspirit]

You sound like Squidward from spongebob squarepants

[@MsTommyknocker]

Epiephrine is also called adrenaline??

[@inacala8864]

Yes, it's the same thing.

[@inacala8864]

+Ina إينا‬ Adrenalin it's the British name for epinephrine :)

[@FansteDot]

Prefixes "epi-"(greek) and "ad-"(latin) have the same meaning - "above". Same goes for words "nephros"(greek) and "ren"(latin) which mean "kidney". It makes sense because epinephrin (adrenalin) is synthesized in the medulla of suprarenal gland ("supra-" = above, "ren" = kidney).

[@n.a.7271]

Sir why inhibitory neurotransmitters are released from neurons....

[@TonyPanama]

I am no expert, I am an ER physician for 19yrs but i figure I'd take a shot at answering. Regarding the physiology of regulating opposing systems such as excitatory (glutamate) and inhibitory (GABA) you must understand that efficient homeostasis of an organism requires quick, precise and real time adjustments. The only efficient way to do this is to have opposing systems active with one dominating for the immediate needs of the organism. For the purpose of making a sound analogy I will use the sympathetic and parasympathetic system. Both systems are running at the same time but if you need to run out of a burning building your sympathetic system will ramp up and your parasympathetic system will ramp down. Now 20 minutes later if you need to eat lunch your parasympathetic will ramp up and your sympathetic will ramp down. I used sympathetic and parasympathetic systems because they are very fast whereas Glutamate/GABA are slower, but the concept of both being on for efficiency holds. They balance out each other and only minute increases in one and decreases in the others results in net action. If my explanation was not clear, I will try another.

[@rahulsaren8873]

Wowwww

[@MsTommyknocker]

Why ar ethey called monoamines??

[@raniaramadan3819]

MrTommyknocker because they undergo decarboxylation which removes the carboxyl group from the Alpha carbon.

[@suzanaqeel9967]

Hi everyone.. Please i need help for my exam tomorrow.. My question is about how any drug medication leaves the receptor...? What is the thing that motivation him to leave and go for elimination ...?

[@lujanes6598]

Suzan Aqeel what do you study? Are you sure they’d be asking you such things?

[@DPWheartscream]

I love opioids

[@Lilsimplegirl]

Thank you very much!!! This video is really helpful

[@MsTommyknocker]

One of the amino acids is not an amino acid in the typical sense of the word amino acid.

[@andeeplays]

GABA? Please stop. It stands for gamma AMINObutyric ACID. AMINO ACID is in it's name.

[@artscience8202]

Ameeeeeeeeeeee-no acids.

[@NRMattison]

The middle molecule under "amino acids" is not an amino acid.

[@cylune6272]

What do you mean? It has the NH2-group and the carboxylic acid group like the others do.

[@NRMattison]

Ok. It is not an alpha amino acid is what I should have said. GABA is rarely refered to as an AA.

[@FSexpert1]

I'm about to say the same thing! I'm studying 20 AAs and it's not one of those :)))

[@andeeplays]

Are you serious...? GABA STANDS FOR gamma AMINObutyric ACID. 'Amino Acid' is in it's freaking name. Are you just too thick to realize that or what?

[@Jaishree.bhardwaj]

Guys this video is about neurotransmitters and not amino acids. Its is the classification of N.T. thus aminos being one of the sub-part of it. Dahh

[@t.thomas6967]

these khan videos are awful on a phone
