Answer:

C. It harms aquatic organisms

Explanation:

The hydropower is a one of the most commonly used in the world. It is based on the power of the water, and by building a dam on a river, the water is accumulated, and its power used for production of electrical energy. While this type of power has lot of advantages, like having long lifespan, being eco-friendly, and it has high efficiency, it also has some negatives about it. The biggest negative by the hydropower is that it causes harm tot he aquatic organisms. Because there is a dam built, the water becomes more stagnant, meaning that it becomes warmer, harming the organisms that are not able to adapt to it. The dam restricts the migration of the aquatic organisms, which is especially a big problem for the ones that migrate because of mating. The nutrients start to concentrate in front of the dam, while after the dam they are in very low quantity.

I'll inform them that the possibility of all their future children/offspring being phenotypically sickle-celled is very high.

Explanation:

Sickle cell is an inherited disease condition in which the red blood cells of the blood loses its shape and hence, dies or gets broken down. It has to do with the blood genotype of an individual. There are three major types of blood genotypes in humans namely: AA, AS, and SS. SS is the recessive genotype that codes for the sickle cell trait.

Hence, a human with the sickle cell trait has a genotype- SS. Therefore, according to this question, a man and a woman, each with sickle-cell trait (SS), were planning to marry, This will mean that both the man and the woman will always produce a gamete with S allele, which will combine to form an SS offspring. In other words, all of the offsprings of this man and woman will be sickle-celled.
