Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The basal ganglia, a group of structures in the brain involved in movement and cognition, rely heavily on the neurotransmitter dopamine for proper function. Dysfunction of the basal ganglia and its dopamine supply is associated with movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease, as well as cognitive impairments such as dementia. Mescaline and anandamide are not involved in the functioning of the basal ganglia, and although acetylcholine plays a role in the brain, it is not the primary neurotransmitter involved in the basal ganglia's functioning.
