Explanation

All three statements about Parkinson's disease are factually accurate. The disease affects approximately 120,000 people in Britain with around 10,000 new cases diagnosed annually. It is caused by the degeneration of dopamine-producing nerve cells in the substantia nigra region of the brain, which disrupts the neural signaling needed for coordinated movement.
