Sickle cell anemia is recessive, meaning people with the disease inherit it from both parents.
Answer:Atoms of nonmetals have a tendency to gain or share electrons when they react.
Explanation: Non-metals are elements that gain electron to form negatively charged ions known as anions.
When non-metals react, they either gain/accept electron from a metal atom or share electron with another non-metal atom. When a non-metal accepts an electron from a metal atom, the type of bond formed is called ionic or electrovalent bond. In electrovalent bond, the metal atom transfers its valence electrons to the non-metal atom so that both attain a stable octet or duplet structure.
When a non-metal shares electron with another non-metal atom, the type of bond formed is known as covalent bond. In covalent bond, the two non-metal atoms share a pair of electron, each atom donating one electron to form a pair.
At first, the population of predators would spike and increase quickly, but then over time, gradually decrease.
(This is because at first there's more food, so the predators population increases. But overtime it begins to level out and the predators' population catches up with the prey, and in result, doesn't continue increasing.)
