Answer:
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 disease is an autosomal recessive disorder that means a child will acquire the phenotype or we can say disease only when both the alleles which cause disease are present in the child.
Here, in this condition neither parent has Tay-Sachs but they gave birth to a child who is suffering from the disease then it simply means that both the parents are carrier of this disease i.e. they both are heterozygous.
The cross and probability of healthy and diseased child is shown as under:
Mother Father
Parents Tt Tt
/ | | \
Off-springs TT Tt Tt tt
<u>Out of these 4 probable off-springs only 3 with genotype TT, Tt & Tt will be healthy while the 1 with genotype tt will be diseased.</u><u> </u><u>So, the probability of diseased child is 1/4 which is 25%. </u>
Also, the birth of children is an independent event so if one child has already been born with this disease then it doesn't mean that the next 3 children will be healthy for sure i.e. birth of first child cannot influence the next child. In short we can also say that in the next birth, there is still 25% chance of the child being born with this disease because previous birth has nothing to do with next birth.

Answer:
3 (Cells carry out the respiration process)
Explanation:
Cellular respiration is a metabolic (catabolic) process common to all living things as all living things need energy for their life processes.
Respiration is the biochemical process in which the cells of an organism obtain energy by breaking down organic molecules in presence or absence of oxygen (aerobic or anaerobic) resulting in the release of Carbondioxide (CO2), water and Adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
Food molecules (containing stored energy in their chemical bonds) absorbed after digestion are broken down and the energy within their molecules are freed. This freed energy in form of ATP, is used to power the organism's movement and physiological functions.
Note that, ATP is an energy carrying molecule and a usable form of energy by cells. This is so because ATP releases energy quickly. Energy is released from ATP when the end phosphate (Pi) is removed to become ADP (adenosine diphosphate), which is a low energy molecule.
Aerobic cellular respiration consists of Glycolysis, Kreb's cycle and Oxidative phosphorylation. A total of 38 ATP molecules is produced in the cytosol of prokaryotes while a total of 36 ATP molecules is produced in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells.
