An allele for a particular trait that is only expressed in the presence of a second copy of the same allele is called
docker41 [41]

Answer:

The correct answer is recessive.

Explanation:

The alternate forms of similar genes are known as alleles. A version of a gene, which to get expressed in the phenotype need to be homozygous at the time of inheritance is termed as a recessive allele. This shows that for a specific trait, a recessive allele only demonstrates its expression when a similar copy of the same allele is present.  

There are two forms of alleles known, these are dominant alleles and recessive alleles. The prime difference between the two is that the expression of a dominant allele is always witnessed, that is, whether it is in the heterozygous state or homozygous state. On the other hand, the expression of a recessive allele is only witnessed when it is in a homozygous state.

What are some pros and cons of the treatments used for each of the sickle cell anemia patients investigated in this activity.
kolezko [41]
Sickle cell anemia is a disease commonly found in patients who are from African descents. It is a condition where a mutated form of hemoglobin distorts the red blood cells. Though a lot of treatments were suggested to cure the disease, scientists are yet to find the right cure for it.

So far, bone marrow transplant is the only potential cure for sickle cell anemia and this is very costly. Patients who have this disease often result to just taking medications to relieve its symptoms and prevent other complications.

<span>Treatments like antibiotics, pain-relieving medications, vaccinations, blood transfusions, and stem cell transplant are prescribed by doctors to alleviate further symptoms that the disease brings; but these medications do not guarantee a clear-cut solution to the problem. </span>
