Motor Diversity • Muscular conditions: Myopathies, osteopathies. • Neurological diseases: • Cerebral palsy. • Neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's). • Classification by paralysis: • Monoplegia, hemiplegia, paraplegia, tetraplegia. 5.3. Intellectual Diversity • Difficulties in cognitive and adaptive functioning. • Examples: • Down syndrome. • Autism. ⸻ 6. Needs and Supports 6.1.
