Question

Risk factors for alzheimer’s disease include-

• A. Klinefelter syndrome
• B. Low BP
• C. Down’s syndrome
• D. None

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

To identify the risk factors for Alzheimer's Disease, we need to evaluate the given options:

Option	Relevance to Alzheimer's Disease
Klinefelter syndrome	This genetic condition affects males, resulting from an extra X chromosome. It is not directly associated with Alzheimer's Disease.
Low BP	Low blood pressure does not have a direct link to Alzheimer's Disease as a risk factor. Variations in blood pressure might affect brain health but it is not a recognized risk factor.
Down’s syndrome	This genetic disorder is associated with an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's Disease at an earlier age due to the overexpression of the amyloid precursor protein gene on chromosome 21.
None	This option is incorrect as Down's syndrome is indeed a risk factor for Alzheimer's Disease.

Therefore, the correct answer is: Down’s syndrome
