Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Let us assume the sickle cell anemia allele to be S and the alternate, non-sickle cell allele to be A.

Since the woman has no history of sickle cell in her family, she is totally free from the trait and, hence, would have the genotype of AA.

The man's father had sickle cell anemia. This means that the man has, at least, one sickle cell allele in his genotype with the other allele depending on the genotype of his mother. Hence, the man can be AS or SS depending on the genotype of his mother.

How do scientists use the kinetic theory of matter?
Keith_Richards [23]

The energy of moving matter is called kinetic energy. Scientists think that the particles of all matter are in constant motion. In other words, the particles of matter have kinetic energy. The theory that all matter consists of constantly moving particles is called the kinetic theory of matter. 

  • If particles do not have enough kinetic energy to overcome the force of attraction between them, matter exists as a solid.
  • If particles have enough kinetic energy to partly overcome the force of attraction between them, matter exists as a liquid.
  • If particles have enough kinetic energy to completely overcome the force of attraction between them, matter exists as a gas.
