Answer:

Memory consolidation

Explanation:

Short term memory is stored in the brain for relatively short period of time especially for few minutes. Long term memory is stored in brain for long period ( years or lifetime).

Short term memory can be converted into the long term memory by association, rehearsal and involved with emotional state. Memory consolidation is the process of learning new things and store them in previously stored memories. Hence, memory consolidation does not increase the conversion of short memory to long term memory.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).

Tay-Sachs disease is a lethal, autosomal recessive genetic disorder. If both parents are heterozygous carriers of the disease, w

rjkz [21]

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

Let's assume that the allele "T" gives the normal phenotype while the recessive allele "t" imparts the disease and is lethal in homozygous condition. The genotype of each of the two carrier parents would be "Tt". A cross between Tt and Tt would give the progeny in the following genotype ratio=

Tt x Tt= 1/4 TT: 1/2 Tt: 1/4 tt

Therefore, 1/2 or 50% progeny would be the carrier for the Tay-Sachs disease.
