Answer:

The correct answer is- adherence junction.

Explanation:

Adherence junction plays important role in communication between cells by cell to cell adhesion. Apart from communication, it also plays important role in maintaining the structural integrity of the tissue because it forms strong connection between the cells.

So as adherence junction helps in initiating and stabilizing the cell to cell adhesion and maintaining the structural integrity of tissue, therefore, adherence junction will most likely be affected by the treatment of an experimental substance that compromised the structural integrity of the tissue.

Therefore the right answer is - adherence junction.

<h3>What are the cell structure and their functions?</h3>

Some explanation on structure of cells is given below:

The nucleus:

This is known to be the  key or major organelle that tends to sustain or hold the genetic information that is needed  for reproduction and cell growth as well as development.

Note that  all cell is known to be made up of one nucleus and also a kind of membrane-bound organelles that can be seen in the cytoplasm.

Mitochondria:

This is known to be a double membrane-bound organelle that is known to function by acting as the site for the energy transactions and it is made for the survival of all cell.

Therefore, The model of the structures of the cell and and their functions is given in the image attached.

Answer: The correct answer to the question is option C

BECAUSE YOU HAVE HAD ONE CHILD WITH TAY-SACHS,YOU MUST EACH CARRY THE ALLELE.ANY CHILD YOU HAVE HAS A 25% CHANCE OF HAVING THE DISEASE.

Explanation: Tay- Sachs is a rare disorder that is inherited,it is characterised by a progressive destruction of the nerves of the brain and spinal cord.its onset is from around 6months of life to around 4-5years of age when the child affected eventually dies.

A Child that have Tay-Sachs experiences problem with coordination,muscle contraction, must stiffness and weakness.there is also difficulty is speaking, swallowing, wasting(uncontrolled weightloss), hearing loss,seizure, and vision loss.

Since the parents of the child in the question claims they don't have Tay- Sachs and no one in the family has it but they came down with a child having Tay-Sachs and one of the major factors to Tay-Sachs as stated above is heredity,the main point to counsel the couples on is that because they have had one child with Tay-Sachs,they most each carry the allele which is obviously recessive so any child they had have has 25% chance of having the disease.
