dophamine... occurs naturally in basal ganglia (regulation of movement) and andrenal medulla...metabolic precursor of norepihephrine and epinephrine

yohimbine...from Pausinystalia yohimbe. An alkaloid with stimulant. An alpha-2 antagonist. Can be used to treat erectile dysfunction.

Dan kau boleh jawab sambil tersengih sambil menampakkan gigi palsu....

"atropine, yohimbine, cocaine, epihephrine, dopamine, norepinephrine!"

"Wow... nenekku.." balas si cucu dengan bersinar matanya.. tanda gembira =D "...
