Nitrogen is very important for plants growth. Nitrogen fixation is the process by which atmospheric nitrogen is assimilated into organic compounds especially by microbes. Nitrogen fixation can be carried out by bacteria and lighting. The vast amount of energy in lightening decompose nitrogen molecules and enables the nitrogen atoms to combine with oxygen in the air forming nitrogen oxides. These oxides dissolve in the rain to form nitrates which are carried into the soil. The percentage of nitrogen fixed by this method is between 5%- 8% of all nitrogen fixed.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The correct option is: <em>a deficiency of dopamine in the substantia nigra.</em>

Explanation:

The substantia nigra is the principal site involved in the physiopathology of Parkinson´s disease.

Cells from this area degenerate and die progressively causing important degeneration in the central nervous system. The cells that die -with no known reason- are those that produce dopamine and proportionate dopaminergic innervation to the encephalon. In fact, almost all the symptoms exhibited by patients with the disease can be explained by the lack of dopamine in the substantia nigra.  

This area uses the neurotransmitter to communicate neurons from the base ganglia. Ganglia are responsible of modulating and modifying movements.

The nigrostriatal system participates in planning and automatic execution of learned movements. When the ganglia activity decreases, so it does the amount and velocity of movements, something typical of the disease.

Why do scientists want to classify protists into a different group
timama [110]

I hope this helped ^_^
