Sickle cell disease (sickle cell anemia) is a genetic, inherited disease affecting red blood cells, in which a child can be ill if both parents are transmitters, ie asymptomatic carriers of the gene for sickle cell disease. It is a hereditary autosomal recessive disease, that is, it affects girls as well as boys, and only manifests itself when one carries two genes of the disease. This disease is genetic and therefore not contagious.
*So, to be sick from sickle cell disease, the person has to have two sick alleles in the chromosome.
*To have the sickle-cell trait without getting sick, the person has to have only one sick allele.

the graph shows how the rate of photosynthesis of a plant varies with light intensity. interpret the graph and justify statement
dezoksy [38]

The graph shows that the rate of photosynthesis increases with increased light intensity, other conditions being constant.

<h3>Photosynthesis and light intensity</h3>

From the graph, the rate of photosynthesis increases with an increase in light intensity.

At low light intensity, the photosynthesis rate increases with an increase in the concentration of carbon dioxide and level off at some point.

With medium light intensity, the rate of photosynthesis is about twice that of low light intensity under the same concentration of carbon dioxide. It also gradually levels off when the concentration of carbon dioxide reached a particular point.

The same trend applies to high light intensity. The rate of photosynthesis increased accordingly, much more than low and medium-intensity light.

Both light and carbon dioxide concentration can limit the rate of photosynthesis. When both factors are abundant, photosynthesis can be limited by other factors such as water, nutrient, etc.
