Answer:
The sickle-cell allele is widely known as a variant that causes red blood cells to be deformed into a sickle shape when deoxygenated in AS heterozygotes, in which A indicates the non-mutant form of the β-globin gene, and also provides resistance to malaria in AS heterozygotes.

Answer:
Please find the expected genotypes and phenotypes of the progenies of each cross below.
Explanation:
In the MN blood-group locus of the gene, alleles LM and LN exhibit codominance i.e one allele is not dominant or recessive to the other, hence, they are both expressed when they occur in a heterozygous state (MN).
Considering the following crosses (find the punnet square attached);
a)LMLM x LMLN - The progeny are LMLM and LMLN in the genotypic ratio 1:1. Phenotypic ratio is Blood type M (1) : blood type MN (1)
b) LNLN x LNLN - The progeny are all LNLN offsprings with a phenotypic and genotypic ratio 4:0. All offsprings will have a blood type N (4)
c) LMLN x LMLN - The progenies are LMLM, LMLN and LNLN in the genotypic ratio 1:2:1 respectively. The phenotypic ratio is Blood type M (1) : L
Blood type MN (2) : Blood type N (1)
d) LMLN x LNLN - The progeny are LMLN and LNLN with genotypic ratio 1:1 and phenotypic ratio blood type MN (1) : blood type N (1)
e) LMLM x LNLN - The progeny are all LMLN offsprings with penotypic ratio blood type MN (4)
Answer:
Gametes are an organism's reproductive cells. They are also referred to as sex cells. Female gametes are called ova or egg cells, and male gametes are called sperm. Gametes are haploid cells, and each cell carries only one copy of each chromosome. ... In contrast, each egg cell, or ovum, is relatively large and non-motile.

True , your welcome! good luck!
