Question

Dopamine is ‘addictive’ because ______.

विकल्प

• sportspersons become addicted to praise and glory

• it makes sportspersons look down on those who do not take risks

• the sportsperson seeks out experiences and the thrill of the same kind of experience

• the sportsperson is not able to differentiate between safety and danger

Answer 1

Dopamine is ‘addictive’ because the sportsperson seeks out experiences and the thrill of the same kind of experience.

Explanation:

Dopamine activates the brain’s reward system and creates a desirable feeling. Participants may therefore seek out similar experiences again for the same thrill; the passage does not say they are motivated by praise or superiority.
