Neuro is the elctric system which determine the now, as electricity can only move at the speed of light it is restricted to instantaneous arc like responses an example of this is the knee jerk response a closed loop reflex, input results in instantaneous output. However this is not always the best case as there needs to be stimuli then in the absence of a higher cortex some method by which a delayed "intelligent" response is created.

There are a few molecules which float in your brain which do specific things:

  • Dopamine is a monoamine neurotransmitter. It plays a key role in the functioning of the limbic system, which is involved in emotional function and control. It also is involved in cognitive processes associated with movement, arousal, executive function, body temperature regulation, and pleasure and reward, and other processes.
  • GABA is an example of an inhibitory neurotransmitter.
  • Norepinephrine, also known as noradrenaline, is a monoamine neurotransmitter that is involved in arousal, pain perception, executive function, body temperature regulation, and other processes.
  • Epinephrine, also known as adrenaline, is a monoamine neurotransmitter that plays in fight-or-flight response, increases blood flow to muscles, output of the heart, pupil dilation, and glucose.
  • Serotonin is a monoamine neurotransmitter that plays a regulatory role in mood, sleep, appetite, body temperature regulation, and other processes.
  • Histamine is a monoamine neurotransmitter that is involved in arousal, pain, body temperature regulation, and appetite.

The chemicals listed about work in a complicated symphony to produce human behaviour. In respects to burnzero, the most important is Dopamine...

Dopamine

Dopamine works as a reward chemical. When your dog sees the ball you are about to throw it sets a dopamine dynamic where it craves the neurochemical dopamine but the release of which only occurs in the wanting stage. When the dog actually gets the ball, the having stage dopamine disappears.[1] The wanting is stronger than having, we persue flow based behaviours on a stock based world.
