Homework Answers
Ans) Huntington's disease
- Also called: HD, Huntington's chorea
- An inherited condition in which nerve cells in the brain break down over time.
- It typically starts in a person's 30s or 40s.
Multiple sclerosis:
- Also called: MS
- A disease in which the immune system eats away at the protective covering of nerves.
- In MS, resulting nerve damage disrupts communication between the brain and the body.
Huntington’s Disease AND Multiple Sclerosis:
- Utilizing indexes from the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale and the Halstead–Reitan Battery, it was found that there was substantially more severe cognitive deficit in the Huntington's disease patients than in the multiple sclerosis patients, and the level of impairment was similar between the Huntington's disease and Multiple Sclerosis.

Carriers of the HD gene typically develop symptoms in the prime of their life that range across a variety of physical and emotional disorders.
