Direction for Q28-Q30 - Read the passage carefully then answer the questions.
A new US study has warned that adolescents who take performance enhancing anabolic steroids are
more likely to have adverse neural and behavioral consequences, like aggression and moodiness
because of the steroids affect on the underdeveloped brain and the nervous system. The study, by
Northeastern University in the US, centered around a brain chemical called serotonin, which is
linked to mood. Lower levels of serotonin are associated with depression and aggression. For the
study, experiments were carried out on a strain of Syrian hamsters. This breed has similar
neurological circuitry to human, so experts felt it might be a good model for humans in this respect.
The hamsters were given a high dose of anabolic steroids over the course of a month-which
corresponded to five years, repeated dosage in humans. The researchers found that the hamsters
were more aggressive than those not given steroids and these aggressive tendencies were mellowed
if Prozac- a drug which boost serotonin “uptake” – was given. However, subsequent analysis showed
significantly lower than normal serotonin levels in the neural connections of the hamster’s brains.
This suggests there may be a longer-term effect of taking steroids while the brain is still developing.
Professor Richard Melloni, who helped run the study, we quoted as saying y BBC: “We know
testosterone or steroids affect the development of serotonin nerve cells, which in turn, decreases
serotonin availability in the brain. The serotonin neural system is developing during adolescence and
the use of anabolic steroids during this critical period appears to have immediate neural and
behavioural consequences.”
Q28. The drug that boosts serotonin uptake is _______.
a) Prozac b) Melanin c) Erythrocytes d) Penicillin
Q29. Which of the following sentences is true, according to the passage?
a) Adolescents are more likely to have neural and behavioral disorders.
b) Depression and aggression are caused by a lower intake of serotonin.
c) Those taking steroids are likely to face long term neural and behavioral implications.
d) None of these
Q30. Why do adolescents develop neural disorders?
a) The effect of steroids hampers the growth of the brain.
b) Prozac, if taken in excess by adolescents, makes them aggressive.
c) Due to decrease in the level of serotonin in the blood.
d) None of these
