Dementia is caused by progressive loss of brain cells and it happens at much quicker rate than normal aging process. High blood pressure , heart problems and stroke can cause a sub type of dementia called vascular dementia.

Basically a biologically mechanisum is a system by which a living organism modifies,changes etc.you will be focusing on the biological causes of dementia,whether the cause is viralbacterial or prion based i can think of few symptoms of dementia can be seen in certain conditioms caused by viruses.ex
wouldhiv induced demetia viral meaningitis so it can be argued a biological mechanism for dementia are the action of viruses and prions

mechanism depends upon the cause which it cause it..
as in Alzheimer’s disease there is amyloid deposition which affects transmission process..so it cause progressive dementia..
