Hey Kristyna!
I agree that this disease disrupts the Nervous system. For example, it probably takes someone longer to do a simple task rather than have the Neurons (Inter, Motor, and, Sensory) to their roles quickly in an activity that's been done multiple times of the past!

Alzheimer's seems as though there is an increased deficiency in the brain. However, does that actually effect the brains physicality (as shown in the picture) as well?
