Answer:

With respect to the cases of early-onset Alzheimer’s disease are inherited, a type known as familiar Alzheimer’s disease (FAD), the statement is best supported by this information is that FAD is the result of a genetic change in one or more chromosomes.

Explanation:

Options for this question:

  • <em>FAD is the result of a genetic change in one or more chromosomes.</em>
  • <em>Natural selection will continue to reduce the incidence of FAD.</em>
  • <em>FAD affects only the genes of middle-aged people.</em>
  • <em>Deletion of one amino acid causes FAD.</em>

Alzhaimer's disease is a type of dementia that is characterized by neuronal degeneration, causing disorientation, memory and manual skills loss , among others. The familiar variety (FAD) is hereditary and is associated as a cause of disease and early Alzhaimer, before 60-65 years.

So far, three types of mutated genes related to FAD have been established:

  • PSEN₁ or presenilin-1 gene , more frecuent.
  • APP or amyloid precursor protein gene.
  • PSEN₂ or gene for presenilin-2, very rare or uncommon.

In some cases, people affected by FAD have alteration in more than one gene at the same time.

For this reason, it can be stated that FAD is the result of a genetic change in one or more genes or chromosomes.

3.Endocrine system.

Secretes hormones and chemicals in response to stimulus from the nervous system to maintain balance using feedback loops i.e, negative and positive.

4. Lymphatic system.

Part of the immune system that consist of vessels that carries lymph, cleaning the blood by filtering lymph with foreign particles into the lymph node.

5. Urinary system.

Used to eliminate waste from the body, regulates blood pressure, volume and pH. It also used to retain electrolytes and metabolites.

6. Respiratory system.

Used for gaseous exchange using the blood, heart and lungs. Air enters the lungs, transported by blood and is pumped by the heart to all body parts where oxygen is dropped, carbon dioxide is collected by the veins to the lungs and released to the atmosphere.
