All evolutionary changes that allow a species to change in response to the environment, are originally a result of beneficial DNA mutations.

Beneficial genetic (DNA) mutations are result in individuals with special characteristics that allow them to survive better in the environment so they pass their genes to the next generation.

Here's a fictional example I made just for you!: Lets say you have an alien species called Hibas. They are jelly blobs that float around, don't move, and open their mouths to capture neon shrimps that happen to swim into their mouths. But one day a certain Hiba developed some muscles through a genetic mutation. It was able to "wiggle" through the water and steer itself instead of floating around. This allowed it to eat more neon shrimp than the other Hibas, so it grew faster and was able to reproduce faster. It's kids also had muscles and had an advantage so they reproduced faster then the other Hibas. Eventually the whole Hiba species started to have muscles because the ones that didn't weren't able to compete and did not survive as well.
The reason that most of the Hibas developed muscles was because one of them had a mutation that allowed it to have muscles. This was a BENEFICIAL mutation that allowed it to SURVIVE BETTER.

Although the cause of Parkinson's disease is unknown,research indicates that it may be due to defective nuclei in the cells of t

o-na [289]

Answer:

Nervous System could be studied as a direct result of having defective nuclei and may shed light on the cause of Parkinson .

Explanation:

PASRKINSON DISEASE -: Parkinson's disease is a progressive nervous system condition. Several regions of the brain are affected by the condition, especially an area called substantia nigra that regulates balance and movement.

A trembling or shaking (tremor) of the limb is often the first sign of Parkinson's disease, particularly when the body is at rest. Typically, on one side of the body, the tremor starts, usually in one hand. The head, legs , feet, and face can also be affected by tremors. Other hallmark symptoms of Parkinson's disease are rigidity or rigidity of the limbs and body, slow movement (bradykinesia) or inability to move (akinesia), and impaired balance and coordination (postural instability).

Emotions and thinking ability (cognition) can also affect Parkinson's disease. Psychiatric disorders such as depression and visual hallucinations are created by some affected persons. There is also an increased risk of developing dementia in people with Parkinson's disease, which is a loss in intellectual functions, including judgment and memory.

Hence , the answer is the nervous system and other regions of brain where the disease has a direct result of having a defective nuclei and may shed light on the cause of Parkinson .

KiRa [710]

Answer:

the neocoretex

Explanation:

from wikipedia "The neocortex, also called the neopallium, isocortex, or the six-layered cortex, is a set of layers of the mammalian cerebral cortex involved in higher-order brain functions such as sensory perception, cognition, generation of motor commands,[1] spatial reasoning and language.[2] The neocortex is further subdivided into the true isocortex and the proisocortex."
