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.

Musya8 [376]

Answer: shingles, varicella-zoster virus

Explanation:

It should be noted that shingles usually occur with old people and it causes a painful rash when the chicken pox virus is reactivated in the body.

Since the man is old and has painful fluid-filled vesicles that have begun crusting over in a wide band across the left side of his lumbar area and also has a history of chickenpox, it's very likely it is shingles.

Like plants, human beings have similarities and differences. God gave us talents which He wants us to use. What can you do best?
asambeis [7]
Well, humans have talents. Whether those talents are god given is up for debate. I'd argue those talents are a result of millions of years of evolution and natural selection as proven by Charles Darwin, not given by an unproven deity, but I don't know what school year you are in so you may not have escaped the years where religion is forced upon you :P

Anyway, if you're being asked this question, what do <em>you </em>like doing? I'd say my talent lies in science, as I was the top performing physicist throughout my gcse years, and I love the subject. In my opinion what you do best is what you love doing most, as if you have a passion for something it will almost always be your best talent. I can't answer that question for you.

Sharing this talent to others is basically teaching and also spreading your passion for your talent to others. They probably won't ever be as good as you because they will have their own talents and passions, but you can give them an insight into it by teaching them what you know and encouraging them to invest some time into it.

4. Suppose that a dominant allele (P) codes for a polka-dot tail and a recessive allele (p) codes for a solid colored tail. If t
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The correct answer would be:

  • Genotype ratio: 1 (PP) : 2 (Pp) : 1 (pp)
  • Phenotypic ratio: 3 (polka-dot tails) : solid colored tail

The genotype of both parents is Pp (heterozygous).

Thus, both the parent would produce two types of gametes which are P and p.

The cross would result in the production of offspring with three types of genotype PP, Pp, and pp in 1:2:1.

Offspring with PP and Pp will have a polka-dotted tail as it is the dominant trait.

Thus, the phenotype ratio would be 3 (polka-dotted tail) : 1 (solid colored tail).
