Answer:

Individuals with two recessive alleles have very high rates of reproduction

Explanation:

When two heterozygous individuals AS and AS get married, they eventually pass either the dominant or recessive alleles to their offsprings. Some of the offspring will be homozygous for the sickle cell allele, some may be heterozygous while some may not have the sickle cell allele at all.

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. helps process explicit memories for storage.

Explanation:

The hippocampus is an structure of the brain and is located inside the temporal lobe. The main function of the hippocampus is to mediate the generation and recovery of memories in conjunction with many areas spread across the cortex and with other areas of the limbic system. It helps to process and recover the episodic memory (those related to events) and spatial memory (mode in which we perceive space or dimensions). This organ is also where short-term memories become long-term memories, that is, it acts as a mediator of memories, acting as an activation node that allows different memories distributed across different parts of the brain to be activated.
