Tay-Sachs disease is caused by a mutation of one nucleotide for a protein that disrupts the activity of an enzyme in the brain. This leads to a toxic level of a substance to build up in neurons in the brain and spinal cord, leading to severe brain damage and eventually death. Why do you think that the change in one nucleotide can cause Tay-Sachs disease to be fatal, whereas the change in one nucleotide causes sickle cell disease, a disease in which a person can lead a functional life?

The correct answer is c

Atp is is our little "pocket" of energy. of course, if you have too little, then it means you have too little energy, and you'll pass out. the way to not have enough, is to have no energy sources (glucose, fats, proteins). you can't have too many atp molecules. cycles like the krebs cycle produce it, but if you have too much of any substrate (or too little for that matter), the cycle stops and atp is no longer made (it stops until substrate levels are such that the process can go on). in any case, this is unlikely since atp is constantly hydrolyzed and remade, even while you're asleep. you won't have too much. if you have zero, you are dead or dying.

This bacteria must be very strong as it has a large amount on antibiotic targeting it. this bacteria could be one of many different types and it is very hard to tell which one with out more information.
