Answer:

Hi, There! Your Answer Is Below!

amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS),

Step-by-step explanation:

Heres the 2nd Answer!

In ALS, motor neurons (nerve cells that control muscle cells) are gradually lost. As these motor neurons are lost, the muscles they control become weak and then nonfunctional, thus leading to muscle weakness, disability, and eventually death. ALS is the most common form of motor neuron disease.
