Answer:

See the eplanation below, please.

Explanation:

In sickle cell anemia, hemoglobin has the form of rigid bars inside the red blood cells, causing them to adopt sickle shapes being not very flexible. These cells can block blood vessels, stopping the flow, causing oxygen to not reach the tissues.

The cause of this anemia is due to a genetic mutation (there is a substitution of thymine for adenine in the beta globin gene, located on chromosome 11), generating Hemoglobin S with a decrease in oxygen binding.

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Plasmolysis

Explanation:

In the image 1 the cell is having sufficient quantity of water leading to a turgid cell.

The image 1 plant cell is in a dilute solution in which water enters into cell from external medium.

The image 2 plant cell is exposed to a solution which is high concentrated solution.

Due to this high concentrated  solution the water present in  the cell is send out by exosmosis.

Due to loss of water from plant cells the protoplasm in plant cell shrinks in which cell membrane gets separated from  cell wall.

This shrinkage of protoplasm by loss of water is called plasmolysis.
