Answer:

D. GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter that an adult vertebrate brain has.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • An inhibitory neurotransmitter transmits impulses of inhibiting effects and therefore reduce the chances that a neuron shall give an action in response.
  • The Inhibitory synaptic transmission uses GABA as the neurotransmitter that transmits inhibitory effects.
  • This neurotransmitters are used to repress something such as controlling release hormones, through shutting down and opening the release factor in a bid to control the body.
