Answer:

Tay-Sachs disease results from brain lacking a specific type of lipid-digesting enzyme.

Explanation:

Tay-Sachs disease occurs when relatively large amounts of gangliosides are stored in the brain. It is the oldest lipid storage disease and is a hereditary disorder caused by deficiency of a lipid-digesting enzyme known as "hexosaminidase A", which cleaves a specific bond in the gangliosides.

Its deficiency cause accumulation of gangliosides in the lysosomes of BRAIN CELLS thereby causing degeneration of the nervous system.

How many sperm cells are created from the process of meiosis

Lorico [155]

While mitosis produces 2 daughter cells from each parent cell, meiosis results in 4 sex cells, or gametes in males and 1 in females. Unlike the cells created by mitosis, gametes are not identical to the parent cells. In males, meiosis is referred to as spermatogenesis because sperm cells are produced.
