Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Studies have shown that the same areas of the brain that are activated by drug use, such as the release of dopamine, also light up when someone is in love or infatuated with someone. Therefore, an fMRI scan of Reggie's brain while looking at a picture of Jeana would show similarities to the brain activity of someone who has used addictive drugs.
