Answer:

The fact that there are now treatments that help diagnosed children learn to sit and talk.

Explanation:

Spinal muscular atrophy type 1 is a genetic disease which causes muscle disfunction as a consequence of nerve cells that do not provide signals to the muscles.

It is also called Werdnig-Hoffmann disease, and it is followed by twitching as well as the inability to control one's limbs.

While parents should be informed about all the smallest details of their child's condition, <em>they should by no means be discouraged. </em>It is important to let them know THERE ARE <em>options</em> and <em>chances of improvement</em>.

What is the role of the cilia that line the respiratory tract?
zzz [600]
Hi there!! Cilia are very small fine hairlike projection's/tissues, who's primary responsibilities in the airway is to make sure that it is clear. To be more specific... Cilia line the airways' trachea down. These cilia will do two things; They will trap germs and particulate matter (dust, dander, etc..), before then moving the trapped objects upward to the area where the airway meets the larynx, where you then swallow it... Additionally you can expel it eventually with a cough.
