If one parent has been affected by sickle cell anemia, while the other parent does not and is homozygous, the chances that a child will have this disorder is 0%. Thus, the correct option is C.

<h3>What is Sickle Cell anemia?</h3>

Sickle Cell anemia may be defined as a genetic disorder that is caused by a recessive allele. It is an inherited disease in which the red blood cells have an irregular crescent shape, obstruct small blood vessels, etc.

This disease is inherited when both genes of each parent are supposed to be defective or carriers. While in this case, only parents are affected by the disorder while the other is homozygous for the normal allele.

In this condition, all the offspring produced by both parents remain as carriers but not affected ones.

Thus, the correct option is C.

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

B. Dehydration

Explanation:

Addition reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which two different compunds combine together to form a new compund.

Dehydration reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which water molecule (H2O) is removed from the reactant.

For example: RCO2H + R′OH ⇌ RCO2R′ + H2O

In the given equation: CH3OH + HOCH3 = CH3-O-CH3 + HOH

The reaction is showing dehydration because two molcules are combined aand  water molecule is eliminated from the reactant.

Hence, the correct option is B. Dehydration.

Which of the following groups of phase changes occur only when heat energy is removed or released from water.
Alex787 [66]

The answer is; B

When energy is removed from the water, it means that the molecules lose their energy and they move less kinetically. This way, the energy in the molecules cannot overcome the intermolecular forces of attraction and begin to come together. This causes the water to move from a higher energy phase to a lower energy phase (such as from gas - liquid -- solid).
