Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Endorphins are chemicals that act as natural painkillers and reduce the perception of pain. During exercise, endorphins are released and can create a sense of euphoria or "runner's high." Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that affects mood and sleep, but its release during exercise is not typically associated with euphoria. Nicotine and lithium are not released during exercise, and synapsin is a protein involved in synaptic function, but not necessarily associated with feelings of exhilaration.
