Sicle cell disease (SCD) is found in numerous populations whose ancestral homes are in the malaria belt of Africa and Asia. SCD

is an autosomal recessive disorder that results from homozygosity for a mutant β-globin gene allele. Data on one affected population indicates that approximately 8 in 100 newborn infants have SCD.Epidemiologic data on this population reveal that before the application of modern medical treatment, natural selection played a major role in shaping the frequencies of alleles. Heterozygous individuals have the highest relative fitness, and in comparison to heterozygotes, those who are βAβA have a relative fitness of 89 percent, but only about 43 percent of those with SCD survived to reproduce. What is the frequency of the wild-type (beta A) allele in this population? Express your answer using two decimal places. What is the frequency of the mutant (beta 8) allele in this population? Express your answer using two decimal places. What is the frequency of carriers of SCD in the population? Express your answer using two decimal places.

Fossils give  Scientists look into past life. A dinosaur that mixes together a reptile and a bird  helps scientists understand present day reptiles & birds. Animal Ancestry helps Scientists discover what ancestors of present day animals are. example: a dinosaur and an alligator.  DNA sequences help with this. By matching together the strands of DNA from these fossils can help scientists match together the strands of DNA sequences  For example the gene for a protein found in a horse will overlap in sequence fairly well with the protein gene from a cow but will not match very well with a worm.

Answer:

It includes features from all cell types. A cell consists of three parts: the cell membrane, the nucleus, and, between the two, the cytoplasm. Within the cytoplasm lie intricate arrangements of fine fibers and hundreds or even thousands of miniscule but distinct structures called organelles.
