Answer:

The correct answer is D a change to one amino acid in a protein may cause a significant change in the phenotype.

Sickle cell anemia is caused by the replacement of 6th amino acid in the beta chain of hemoglobin that is glutamic acid by valine.

   glutamic acid is a hydrophilic amino acid that is being replaced by a hydrophobic amino acid known as valine.
