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.

Greeley [361]

This statement means that evolution has happened by getting the genes of the  right trait expressed at the right time to help adaptability.

Explanation:

Evolution is a result of natural selection which emphasize on the survival of the fittest. But the occurrence of this trait has been possible with genetic variation. It means that if the genes for the particular feature is not present in the genome how would it occur and adapt to the environment. Thus, evolution promotes the most available option for the adaptation and hence for natural selection.

We can conclude that all features are not adaptable some are the results of genetic drift or mutations.

In case of cheetah,  the faster running genes would have been there they got expressed over the period of time for better adaptability.

Which is the cause of erosion?
lions [1.4K]
I believe flowing water would create erosion because tectonic plate movement and earthquakes are almost the same thing, and liquid rock is basically lava, and that only heats rock, rather than breaking it into smaller pieces, which is what flowing water does.
