The behaviour of the Dirac field in a FRW space-time is investigated. The relevant equations are solved to determine the particle and energy distribution. The angular and radial parts are solved in terms of Jacobi polynomials. The time dependence of the massive field is solved in terms of known functions only for the radiation filled flat space. The WKB method is used for the approximate solution in a general FRW space. Of the two independent solutions, one is found to decay in time as the Universe expands, while the other solution grows. This could be the source of the local particle current. The behaviour of the particle number and energy density are also investigated. It is found that the particles arrange themselves in a number and density distribution pattern that produces a constant Newtonian potential, as required for the at rotation curves of galaxies. Furthermore, the density contrast is found to grow with the expansion.
