Answer: B cells can be influenced by genetic factors

Explanation: Daren has sickle cell disease. Sickle cell disorder is a kind of disease that affects the hemoglobin in the red blood cells. Hemoglobin, is a molecule in red blood cells that delivers oxygen to cells throughout the body. People with Sickle cell disorder have hemoglobin molecules called hemoglobin S, which distort the shape of the red blood cells. A normal red blood cell has a disc shape but people with sickle cell like Daren have their red blood cells and distorted into a sickle, or crescent, shape

The cell is most likely prokaryotic because:

Prokaryotes lack membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus due to which the DNA are seen throughout the cytoplasm.

Eukaryotes have membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus. So for eukaryotes, the DNA will be present packed inside the nucleus instead of being dispersed in the cytoplasm.

Prokaryotes can either be autotrophic or heterotrophic depending on their mode of nutrition. Autotrophic prokaryotes can make organic molecules for a carbon dioxide source. On the other hand, heterotrophic prokaryotes can take carbon from organic compounds. Hence, the organism can be autotrophic or heterotrophic.
