Describe the impact of dyslexia on reading.

Dyslexia significantly impacts an individual's ability to decode words, which is the process of recognizing and interpreting written language. This difficulty with decoding often leads to challenges in accurately sounding out words, recognizing sight words, and understanding the relationship between letters and sounds. As a result, individuals with dyslexia may struggle with reading fluency and comprehension, making it hard for them to keep up with their peers in reading tasks.

The other choices do not reflect the usual effects of dyslexia. While reading fluency typically decreases rather than enhances due to dyslexia, there is no correlation that suggests dyslexia improves spelling abilities or has no effect on writing. In fact, many individuals with dyslexia face challenges in both spelling and writing as these skills are interconnected with reading abilities.
