No, the sickle-cell anemia allele won't be eliminated by natural selection.
Sickle-cell anemia trait is controlled by a single gene and the allele (S) for sickle-cell anemia is a harmful autosomal recessive.
It is caused by a mutation in the normal allele (A) for hemoglobin (a protein on red blood cells).
Heterozygotes (AS) with the sickle-cell allele are resistant to malaria, a deadly tropical disease. It is common in many African populations.
In these areas, (S) carriers have been naturally selected, because their red blood cells, containing some abnormal hemoglobin, tend to be in sickle shape when they are infected by the malarial parasite.
Therefore, they are more likely to survive and reproduce. This keeps the S allele in the gene pool.

Plant and animal cells have almost all of the same structures.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The energy carried by electromagnetic waves is sometimes referred to as radiant energy. Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium for propagation hence they can travel through vacuum and are known to transmit enormous amount of energy.
Electromagnetic waves transmit energy away from the source of the wave. Hence the answer chosen in the answer section above.
