Answer: The correct answer is Sickle cell anemia.  

Sickle cell anemia is caused due to point mutation in the beta- globin chain of hemoglobin molecule. This causes the hemoglobin molecule to distort and the shape of the red blood cells resembles to sickle shape.

The sickle shaped cells can block the blood circulation and the circulation of oxygen is also disrupted in this case.

If a homozygous blood type B father and a blood type O mother produce a child, what is the probability that the child will have
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

100%

Explanation:

Father Genotype: BB

Mother Genotype: OO

One allele will come from the father and one from the mother. Based on the parents'  genotypes, any child will take the B allele from the father and an O allele from the mother, so it will have the genotype: BO

O is a recessive allele so the child will always have blood type B.

if forest are a renewable resource, then why are cutting trees discouraged and sometimes even banned? ​
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Trees are cut at a faster rate than they are planted. Often times, such as in the   Amazon rainforest, trees aren't replanted at all. Trees take years to grow, and at the rate deforestation occurs, it may not be enough to reverse the effect of climate change.
