What is Sickle cell anemia?
Sickle cell is an autosomal recessive trait of humans that arises through mutation in normal gene. The gene for this trait is found in recessive form and you need two copies of the gene - one from father and one from mother- to have the trait expressed. If the trait is expressed it causes a disease called sickle cell anemia.
People with the sickle cell anemia disease have red blood cells of crescent or sickle shape. The red blood cells of this shape can cause many complications in body. They get stuck in blood vessels and cause pain. They also die quickly and make a person anemic (pale).
Probability to have a child with sickle cell anemia:
If a mother is normal but a father is carrier for the trait, then the situation will be as:
Here N indicate normal allele, S indicate allele for sickle cell anemia.
Mother ˣ Father
NN NS
Gametes: N N N S
Offspring: NN NS NN NS
50% : Normal
50% : Carrier
0% : Sickle cell anemia
It means that 50 % kids will be normal and 50% will be carrier for the trait and none of the offspring will have disease Sickle cell anemia.
However, those who are carriers can carry the disease to the next offspring if they are married to a carrier or a person with sickle cell anemia.

B. Bacteria on the roots of a soybean plant
Explanation:
Nitrogen is converted from atmospheric nitrogen (N2) into usable forms, such as NO2-, in a process known as fixation. The majority of nitrogen is fixed by bacteria, most of which are symbiotic with plants.

Epinephrine is also known as adrenaline. It is produced by both the adrenal glands and the certain neurons. It is used to treat some conditions like cardiac arrest, anaphylaxis and more. Its actions vary by tissue type and tissue expression of then receptors. It is binding to a variety of adrenergic receptors.It also help to increase peripheral resistance.
