D. It is type A because A is dominant and i is recessive.
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.

Wavelength light source is part of the control group for William’s experiment
<u>Explanation:</u>
Sir William wanted to conduct an experiment to observe how much heat passed through different colour filters of the sunlight. He directed sunlight to pass through the prism and observed vibgyor and measured the temperature. He found that the temperature increased from violet to red.
Then he was inquisitive to find the temperature beyond the red ray. That’s when he found the infrared rays which had higher temperature that was not to be seen through naked eyes. He performed experiments using the light source and found that the wavelength of light are not refracted in a particular pattern.
