Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The number of electrons lost in the given oxidation reaction is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Serotonin is also known as 5hydroxytryptamine. It is a monoamine neurotransmitter. This molecule is derived from tryptophan with hydroxylation followed by decarboxylation to give serotonin. It is used to treat depression. Monoamine oxidase inhibitors are used to prevent the breakdown of monoamine neurotransmitters.
