VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

a. Heterozygous individuals may pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to offspring.

Explanation:

Tay-Sachs, which is a recessive lethal disease  ---- Let say the recessive lethal diseases is s

∴ it only results when an individual posses two copies of the diseases-causing allele i.e two copies of the disease will be ss.

Let show an illustration for the above statement.

Let the heterozygous individual be Ts, if Ts cross with another Ts;

we will have:

T        TT        Ts

s        Ts          ss

the offspring are TT,Ts,Ts,ss

We can now see how the Heterozygous individuals pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to the offspring (Ts).
