Answer: Sickle cell anemia

It has a crescent shape resembling to a sickle that makes it sticky, rigid, and prone to being trapped in small vessels that blocks the blood from reaching to different parts of the body. 

In addition, this is a genetic disease of the red blood cells with an autosomal recessive condition and you need to have two copies of the gene to have the disease.

What is the third type of variation in Mendel's theory?
Nikitich [7]
The three most important Mendel law is the law of dominance, law of segregation, and law of independent assortment. The law of dominance is when a trait is more recived or more dominate than other trait. For example a flower, if a flower is red most of the flowers will be red, but one will be white. The white flower has a recessive trait. The law of segregation is when a offspring randomly receive one allele of every trait from each parent. The law of independent assortment states that just because you received one allele doesn't mean another dominate allele will be passed also.
