An ❌ in the nervous system caused by neurotransmitter ❌ can result in a ❌ of neurological ❌ causing diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimers disease.
Neurological degeneration resulting in Parkinson's or Alzheimers is caused by an excess of neurotransmitters
Neurological degeneration resulting in Parkinson's or Alzheimers is caused by a loss of neurotransmitters
A lack of important memory neurotransmitter (acetylcholine) caused by plaques and tangles in the brain. This results in:
Alzheimers
Parkinson's
Huntington's
Motor neuron disease
Insoluble clumps in between nerve cells that secrete toxic substances and kill neighbouring neurons are called:
Neurofibrillary tangles
Plaques
Paired helical filaments
Tartars
Twisted neurons that prevent neurotransmission from occurring are called:
Symptoms of Alzheimers
Memory loss
Impaired attention
Impaired concentration
confusion
Difficulty learning new information
Prevention for Alzheimers
Exercise
Healthy diet
Socialisation
Organising
Sleep
Challenging your brain
Mathematics
A loss of dopamine due to cells in the basal ganglia generating is called:
Motor Neuron Disease
The basal ganglia is responsible for movement, and lack of dopamine in the basal ganglia provides movement difficulties
Parkinson's Disease only occurs because of genetic
Symptoms of Parkinson's
Tremors
Slowness in movement
uncoordinated movements
difficulty sleeping
reduced facial expressions
Muscle twitches
Treatment for Parkinson's
Drug treatment
Occupational Therapy
Physical Therapy
