Solution

The correct option is B

Alzheimer's


Accumulation of insoluble proteins in the neural tissues of the brain results in Alzheimer's. It can affect memory, thinking skills and other mental abilities. Subsequently, neurons also get destroyed.

Epilepsy can be caused due to heavy head stroke or accident leading to a continuous and irregular flow of electric charges in the brain.

Parkinsons disease is the nerve cell damage in the brain causing dopamine levels to drop resulting in irregular movement of muscles.

Anaemia is the condition in which there is a deficiency of RBCs or haemoglobin in the blood.
