Answer to Question 2

Dementia is a disease of the brain in which many neurons in the cerebrum die, the cerebral cortex shrinks in size, and there is progressive deterioration in mental function. Symptoms include gradual decline in mental ability, forgetfulness, inability to learn new things, inability to perform daily activities, and difficulty making decisions. The symptoms progress over time and may eventually lead to psychiatric symptoms and complete memory loss.
