Tangles destroy a vital cell transport system made of proteins. In healthy areas, the transport system is organized in orderly parallel strands. Nutrients and other materials needed by neurons travel on these tracks. A protein called tau helps the tracks stay straight. In areas where tangles are forming, tau collapses into twisted strands called tangles. The tracks cannot stay straight and nutrients and other materials cannot reach the neurons. These cells eventually die due to a lack of…

looked like a desk, and used drums to store memory. This computer still made a larger impact because numerous invention is still used today, they include, “a binary system of arithmetic, separate memory and computing functions, regenerative memory, parallel processing, electronic amplifiers as on-off switches, circuits for logical addition and subtraction, clocked control of electronic operations, and a modular design” (www.ece.iastate.com). This computer led to a controversy over the ABC. This…
