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.

Let p = purple flowers and p = white, and t = tall plants and t = dwarf. if the uppercase letters represent the dominant alleles
sesenic [268]

If the uppercase letters represent the dominant alleles, purple flowers and tall are the phenotype of a plant with the genotype Pptt.

A gene can exist in different forms across organisms. These different forms are known as alleles.

The subsequent combination of alleles that an individual possesses for a specific gene is their genotype.  

Examples of  genotype include:

  • Hair colour
  • Height
  • Shoe size
  • Eye colour

The sum of an organism’s observable characteristics is their phenotype. A key difference between phenotype and genotype is that, whilst genotype is inherited from an organism’s parents, the phenotype is not.

Whilst a phenotype is influenced the genotype, genotype does not equal phenotype. The phenotype is influenced by the genotype and factors including:

  • Epigenetic modifications
  • Environmental and lifestyle factors

Observing the phenotype is simple – we take a look at an organism’s outward features and characteristics, and form conclusions about them. Observing the genotype, however, is a little more complex.

Genotyping is the process by which differences in the genotype of an individual are analyzed using biological assays. The data obtained can then be compared against either a second individual’s sequence, or a database of sequences.
