In your own words, discuss Tay-Sachs disease. What organelle within the cell isimpacted?
What are the symptoms of the disease and why do they occur?
Your Answer:
Organelle is Lysosomes,Also toxic lipids inside the cell.
Disability, blindless, paralysis and death can be occur.
Tay-Sachs disease a lipid-digesting enzyme is missing or inactive, and the brain becomes
impaired by an accumulation of lipids in the cells. It is a rare disorder passedfrom parents
to child. It's caused by the absence of an enzyme that helps break down fatty substances.
In Tay-Sachs the lysosomes lack a functiniong hydrolytic enzyme normally present.
(1) Lysosomes
(2) buildup of toxic lipids inside the cell (biomacromolecules)
(3) disability and death
In the genetic disease known as Tay-Sachs, one of the normally present digestiveenzymes
inside lysosomes is lacking. Thus, a toxic lipid in the brain cells cannot be broken down.
The resulting buildup of lipids in these cells can cause intellectual disability and death.
Question 30
pts
Note: Essay answers must clearly be in your own words.
You are observing two cells under the microscope. They are the same type of eukaryotic
cell but one appears much larger. Based on appearance alone, which onewould you expect
to be carrying out respiration at a more active rate, the larger or smaller cell? Explain
why.
