Answer:

<u>Answer to Question 1:</u>

Sickle cell anemia is a recessive disorder. The fact that one of their children is a carrier means that either of Keith and Marsha is a carrier ot it might be that both of them are carriers of the disease.

<u>Answer to Question 2:</u>

The other two kids of Jeff and Adrienne who don't have the genetic disease are still carriers of sickle cell anemia.

<u>Answer to Question 3:</u>

Adrienne is a carrier of the sickle cell anemia disease as well, just like Jeff.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
