Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Dementia literally means mind away; it is not a normal part of aging Dementia is not any specific disease or disorder but, rather, is a group of symptoms that reflect losses in the ability to think, reason, or remember. Dementia causes personality changes, but does not affect level of consciousness.
