1. Describe and discuss the neurotransmitteracetylcholine and histamine as they relate to psychiatric disorders.

2. Where are acetylcholine and histamine found in the brain (there may be more than one area)?

3. What are the neuronal pathway(s) and receptors of acetylcholine and histamine?

4. Describe how an excess vs. deficiency in the acetylcholine and histamine neurotransmitters may contribute to psychiatric illness. How does the imbalance of the focus neurotransmitters (in excess vs deficient) lend itself to psychopathology - What dysfunctional symptoms characterize these states? (This ties back to disruption/dysfunction of the earlier identified pathways/receptors)

5. List the specific disorder(s) affected by your neurotransmitter. Discuss the associated health disorders patients would present with due to the above psychopathology.
