Answer:

b. homozygous recessive.

Explanation:

The allele for sickle cell is recessive. That is, an individual with the AS genotype is a carrier of the allele but is normal because the A alleleis dominant over the S allele. For an individual to suffer from sickle cell anemia, it is a must that the parents must be carriers of the S allele. Thus the individual has a genotype which is SS which is homozygous recessive.

How did President Washington influence the American presidency
Sergeu [11.5K]

Unanimously elected twice, President Washington established many crucial presidential precedents.

George Washington helped shape the office's future role and powers, as well as set both formal and informal precedents for future presidents. Washington believed that it was necessary to strike a delicate balance between making the presidency powerful enough to function effectively in a national government, while also avoiding any image of establishing a monarchy or dictatorship. In the process, President Washington significantly influenced the path for the presidency moving forward, setting standards in all aspects, including political power, military practice, and economic policy.
