pre-ap biology diseases

Celiac disease

Villi covered in microvilli, they begin to flatten or disappear causing it so intestine can’t absorb nutrients since there’s fewer transport proteins

Alzheimer’s disease

Dentures behind to shrink and lose branch which causes for connection loss with other neurons(no communication)

Primary ciliary dyskinesia

Cilia have missing dynein arms which allow cilia to bend this causes cilia to beat weakly out of beat or at all

ALS

Long axons of the motor neurons begin to degenerate breaking down causing the connections from neurons to male to weaken and disappear

Sickle cell anemia

Red blood cells turn sickle and form stiff causing clots reducing oxygen from getting to organs

Parkinson’s disease

dopamine producing neurons experience structural damage and lose axon branches making it hard for regular movement to be hard as dopamine drops

tay Sachs diseas

hexosaminidase aren’t there and cause for build ups of fat causing swollen lysosomes leading to neuron death

Cystic fibrosis

Cell membrane is affected by by the cftr (protein) as it makes them misfold protein and improperly transported into the cell membrane

Mitochondria mypothay

Mitochondria can’t produce much atp causing muscle fibers to weaken and fatigue easily
