Answer:
adaptations are compromises
Explanation:
The pleiotropic gene involved in sickle-cell anemia is an example of heterozygous advantage. This means that the heterozygous genotype is favourale over other two genotypes (recessive homozygous and dominant homozygous). Eventhough it has harmful effect (sickle cell disease carrier) heterozygous genotype enables resistance to infection (malaria) and that is why this genotype is still favourable by natural selection. This phenomenon is evidence of compromise between harmful ad benefit.
Sorry if im 2 late the the correct answer would be FALSE!

Answer:
Human cells can readily absorb folic acid; bacteria cells cannot.
Explanation:
Bacterial cells cannot absorb folic acid and synthesize it. On the other hand, humans do not synthesize folic acid in their cells. They rather obtain it from the diet. Sulfa drugs, for example, sulfanilamide resemble p-aminobenzoate (PABA). PABA is a molecule that is used as a substrate in the synthesis of the coenzyme folic acid. The sulfa drugs serve as competitive inhibitors and compete with PABA for the catalytic site of an enzyme involved in the folic acid synthesis. This prevents the synthesis of folic acid in bacterial cells and thereby, inhibits bacterial growth.
