18 ### Quiz: Neurodegenerative Disorders**Question:**Dopamine is involved in which neurodegenerative disorder?**Options:**- 1) Alzheimer's disease- 2) Parkinson's disease- 3) Huntington's disease- 4) Lou Gehrig's disease/ALS---**Explanation:**This multiple-choice question is designed to test your knowledge of neurodegenerative disorders and the role of dopamine. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that plays a key role in several brain functions, and its dysregulation is a hallmark of certain disorders.- **Option 1: Alzheimer's disease** - Primarily associated with memory loss and cognitive decline due to the degeneration of brain tissues related to memory and cognitive functions. - **Option 2: Parkinson's disease** - Characterized by tremors, rigidity, and bradykinesia (slowness of movement). It is directly related to the loss of dopamine-producing neurons in a region of the brain called the substantia nigra.- **Option 3: Huntington's disease** - A genetic disorder that leads to the progressive breakdown of nerve cells in the brain, affecting movement, cognition, and psychiatric status. - **Option 4: Lou Gehrig's disease/ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis)** - Affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, leading to loss of muscle control.Use this information to identify which neurodegenerative disorder involves dopamine dysfunction.
