Final answer:

B) Acetylcholine is not a biogenic amine neurotransmitter, whereas norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin are.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking which of the listed substances is not a biogenic amine neurotransmitter.

Biogenic amine neurotransmitters are those that are enzymatically made from amino acids and have amino groups in their structure, but no longer have carboxyl groups.

The correct options from the list that are biogenic amines include norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin. However, B) acetylcholine does not fit into this category and is, therefore, the correct answer to the question.
