Respuesta :

Answer: C) The couple can only claim the daughter as a dependent

Explanation: The son is in a perfect health condition, physical well and is independent enough to take care of himself since he has a job with a stable income.

He is also in a perfect age where one is considered a young adult which means he can even own his own home since he is beyond 18 years of age .

The daughter has a disability since she is blind which means she can not take care of herself she is definitely dependent on her parents for most things she can't do herself .
