Imagine a genetic counselor working with a couple who have just had a child who is suffering from tay-sachs disease. neither parent has tay-sachs, nor does anyone in their families. which of the following statements should this counselor make to this couple? oa. "because no one in either of your families has tay-sachs, you are not likely to have another baby with tay-sachs. you can safely have another child." b. "because you have had one child with tay-sachs, you must each carry the allele. any child you have has a 50% chance of having the disease 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. d. "because you have had one child with tay-sachs, you must both carry the allele. however, since the chance of having an affected child is 25%, you may safely have three more children without worrying about having another child with tay-sachs."

In eukaryotes, genetic information is passed to the next generation by processes that include mitosis or meiosis. which of the explanations identifies the correct process and supports the claim that heritable information is passed from one generation to another? a. mitosis, followed by cytokinesis, produces daughter cells that are genetically different from the parent cell, thus insuring variation within the population. b. during mitosis, dna replication occurs twice within the cell cycle to insure a full set of chromosomes within each of the daughter cells produced. c. in asexual reproduction, a single individual is the sole parent and passes copies of its genes to its offspring without the fusion of gametes. d. single-celled organisms can fuse their cells, reproducing asexually through mitosis to form new cells that are not identical to the parent cell.
