Degenerative disease

Question 20

This disease onsets to several years (continuous deterioration) and may not recognize the symptoms are taking place.

Answer 20

Degenerative Disease

Question 21

This type of disease is that the nervous system is not the primary area of the disease.

Answer 21

Metabolic Disease

Question 22

The nervous system affected secondarily

Answer 22

Metabolic Disease

Question 23

Cardiopulmonary arrest (problem is with the cardiac system) but when the time comes, blood does not flow into the brain which means loss of cortical function. What type of disease is this?

Answer 23

Metabolic Disease

Question 24

The nervous system is accidentally involved from a disease in another organ system.

Answer 24

Metabolic Disease

Question 25

This type of disease is due to an abnormality in the development of the nervous system.
