Answer:
In an individual's molecular and cellular level, the heterozygote alleles are preferred over the homozygote alleles. In humans, the heterozygote alleles are found at a locus of beta polypeptide subunit of hemoglobin, while on the other hand, the homozygous alleles found at a similar locus are prone to sickle cell disease.
The individuals carrying homozygous alleles exhibit sickle-shaped RBCs and they also possess low oxygen-carrying capacity, which ultimately results in brain, kidney, or heart failure. However, in the case of heterozygous alleles, the configurations of RBCs are of two kinds, that is, normal shaped and sickle-shaped. Thus, there are not enough sickle-shaped cells to result in the condition.
The heterozygote alleles are resistant to malaria, thus, in tropical areas, where malaria is a prime issue the heterozygote alleles are preferred over the homozygote dominant alleles as they are vulnerable to the infection and over the homozygote recessive alleles who has sickle cell disease.
Answer:
Cells are the basic building blocks of living things. The human body is composed of trillions of cells, all with their own specialised function.
Answer:
endothermic is the right answer
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Almost all coal that is used today has its origins in the Carboniferous period. The Carboniferous period was a warm and wet one, with the majority of the land being swampy and covered with dense rainforests of ancient tree species. By the end of this period, the climate quickly changed, resulting int he collapse of the rainforests. As the trees were dying out, they were falling in the swamps, quickly being covered by the mud, so remaining largely preserved. Over time they got exposed to higher pressure and temperatures as they were getting deeper into the crust, eventually resulting in the formation of the coal.
