A deficiency of dopamine is responsible for the signs and symptoms of Parkinson's disease.

Parkinson's disease is characterized by gradual degeneration of neurons in a section of the brain. In normal conditions, these neurons release a chemical substance known as dopamine which is important for the brain.

Dopamine is a neurotransmitter which facilitates communication amongst different parts of the brain that is responsible for smooth muscle activity and proper nerve operation.

Parkinson’s disease is a disorder generally associated with uncontrollable movements like tremors, rigidity as well as problems linked with maintaining body balance and coordination. Symptoms generally develop slowly and intensify over the period.

People may experience trouble in walking and talking with  the advancement of the disease. The patients may also exhibit mental as well as behavioral alterations, sleep trouble, depression, memory problems and lethargy.

What kinds of organisms can perform photosynthesis? Which types of organisms cannot?
Neporo4naja [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

Most plants, most algae and cyanobacteria kinds of organisms (Autotrophs) can perform photosynthesis while heterotrophs are organisms incapable of photosynthesis.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Photosynthesis is a mechanism used among plants as well as other species to transform energy from the sun into chemical energy which may be released later to power the functions of the species.

In autotrophs (organisms who self prepare there food ) with the support of a subsequent series of light-independent reactions like Calvin cycle, creates long-term energy collection in the form of sugars, while some bacteria use different mechanisms like the reverse Krebs cycle to accomplish the same purpose.

Heterotrophs are entities unable to photosynthesize and, by eating certain species, must therefore obtain energy and carbon from the food. In the term heterotroph: hetero means "other" while troph means "feeder", thus their food depends on other species.
