Answer:D
Explanation:
Both parent are Heterozygous for the sickle cell allele.
Both parent have sickle cell trait in which the both posses one abnormal allele of the hemoglobin beta gene (AS heterozygous genotype)
When two AS parents mate, probability of giving birth to a sickle cell anemia child is 1/4
AS + AS= AA, AS, AS, SS
Rarefaction in terms of ecology can be defined as a technique used to assess species richness from the results of sampling.
It allows the calculation of richness of a particular species for a given number of individual samples, and these are based on the construction of rarefaction curves.
Hence, the correct answer is: option A-Creating a representative sample
