Question

Provide details about the healthy anatomy/physiology of the systems that are affected by autism

Answer 1

Answer:

Autism impacts many systems in the body, including the metabolic, mitochondrial, immunological, gastrointestinal and the neurological. These systems interact in complex and highly interdependent ways. New research is challenging the long-held belief that autism affects only those regions of the brain that control social interaction, communication, and reasoning -- suggesting, instead, that the disorder affects the entire brain.

Hope this helped!

Answer 2

Answer:

The systems that are affected by autism are the brain and gastrointestinal symptoms.

Children with Autism Spectrum disorder (ASD) tend to have more medical issues. Including gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms. such as abdominal pain, constipation and diarrhea.

Explanation:

Obbviosly the brain is affected:

- Anatomical differences in the brain and amygdala have been noted in multiple studies.

- Other regions have been inconsistenly identified as diverging from the average.

- Decrease in Purinje and granular cells have been noted.

Brain neurons lacked the RNF 8 protein formed about 50 percent more synopses - the connections that allow neurons to  send signals from one another and those with the gene.

- Th difference appears throughout the brain.

Autism Spectrum (ASD) is a neurological disorder that begins early in childhood and lasts throughout a persons life.

- it affects how a person acts or interacts with others, communicates and learns.      

- It includes what used to be known as Asperger Syndrome and Pervasive Development Disorders.
