Correct Answer
A. NoExplanation
Dyslexia does not have a cure. It is a lifelong condition that affects a person's ability to read, write, and spell. However, there are various strategies and interventions that can help individuals with dyslexia manage their symptoms and improve their literacy skills. While these interventions can be highly effective, they do not completely eliminate the underlying difficulties associated with dyslexia. Therefore, it is important to understand that dyslexia is a neurodevelopmental disorder that cannot be cured, but can be managed and supported.Rate this question:

A. GeneticsExplanation
Dyslexia is primarily caused by genetic factors that affect how the brain processes language. It is often hereditary, with individuals having a family history of dyslexia or other learning disabilities. This neurological condition is not caused by a virus or other external factors but is instead related to differences in the brain areas involved in reading and language processing. Research indicates that dyslexia involves functional and structural differences in the brain, particularly in the areas associated with key reading skills.Rate this question:

Boys are more likely to be affected by dyslexia than girls. Research suggests that around 70-80% of individuals with dyslexia are male. This gender difference may be due to various factors, including differences in brain structure and development between males and females. Additionally, boys tend to be diagnosed with dyslexia at an earlier age compared to girls. However, it is important to note that dyslexia can still occur in girls, albeit at a lower frequency.Rate this question:
