Adrenaline and noradrenaline, Biology

Assignment Help:

Both these neurotransmitter strengthen memory when they are released into the blood stream following learning. Stressful events stimulate release of stress hormones from the adrenal glands-adrenaline and steroids-which in turn stimulate amygdala (a structure in limbic system) to release noradrenaline. These hormones and neurotransmitters acting together heighten memory for stressful events.
