Answer:

Sickle cell anemia  

Explanation:

The mutation is the reversal of an A-T pair in the DNA that replaces a glutamic acid molecule with a valine in the hemoglobin protein.

The changed hemoglobin molecules clump together and cause the red blood cells to change to a crescent or sickle shape that can block blood vessels.

The decreased number of normal red blood cells causes anemia.
