What is juvenile rheumatoid arthritis described as?
Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is the most common kind of arthritis in children. It is characterized by heat and discomfort and causes the joints to expand. The duration of acute arthritis can range from a few weeks or months to years or even a lifetime. It can also be persistent. IA types include autoimmune and autoinflammatory illnesses. This suggests that the immune system, which is meant to fight off viruses and pathogens, becomes confused and attacks the body's cells and tissues. The doctor can suggest blood testing for C-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate. These blood tests evaluate inflammatory markers or markers of inflammation.

Since the male and the female have recessive alleles of this gene, all of their offspring will be like that too.
rr x rr cross will result in 100% of the offspring with the genotype: rr
R- dominant (but none of the parents has this allele)
r- recessive
The mechanism in which organisms best suited for their environment survive
and reproduce <u>NATURAL SELECTION.</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
When individuals in a population compete for resources or live in their environment, the individuals with the slightest advantage over the others have an increased chance of reaching maturity and reproducing to passing down their genes to the next generations.
Natural selection works on the variations of the population to ‘select’ the best alleles of genes in the population that offer an advantage in ‘survival for the fittest’. This how natural selection fits a population to its environment. The greater the variation within a population, the higher its capacity to adapt to changes in the environment.

When a mutation has an effect that helps a species adapt to an environment, and specimens of both genders have it, it will end up taking over, causing evolution to gradually happen.
