Sickle cell disease is a recessive trait which causes a deformation in red blood cells due to a mutation in the gene that codes

for hemoglobin. Consider a father and a mother BOTH with the genotype Hh, where H is the normal hemoglobin gene, and h is the gene that codes for the defective hemoglobin. What percent of their children will have the genotype hh, which means they will have the full-blown disease?

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

He extracted and observed DNA from white blood cells.

He discovered this so called "NUCLEIN" substance from the nuclei of white blood cells. Nucleic acids are the DNA and RNA we know today, hence, Miescher's discovery was significant to the genetic code as he even agitated for the inclusion of his discovery into inheritance.
