Answer:True

Explanation: Bradykinesia means slowness of movement and speed (or progressive hesitations/halts) as movements are continued. It is one of the cardinal symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). You must have bradykinesia plus at least either tremor or rigidity for a Parkinson's diagnosis to be considered.
