- Deterioration of the Mylan sheet.
* This is the insulin of an axon which leads to weak messages between neurons
How would you get Alzheimer’s disease?

Deaden neurons signals or forms of inactive neurons
{Neurons send each other messages and with plaques it tangles them. Thus not being able to access some memories. The plaques block it}
