Answer:
The DNA mutation causes a change in the amino acid sequence for hemoglobin, which causes a change in the shape of red blood cells.
Explanation:
Sickle cell anemia is one of a group of disorders known as sickle cell disease. Sickle cell anemia is an inherited red blood cell disorder in which there aren't enough healthy red blood cells to carry oxygen throughout your body.
Normally, the flexible, round red blood cells move easily through blood vessels. In sickle cell anemia, the red blood are shaped like sickles or crescent moons. These rigid, sticky cells can get stuck in small blood vessels, which can slow or block blood flow and oxygen to parts of the body.
Sickle cell anemia is caused by a mutation in the gene that tells your body to make the iron-rich compound that makes blood red and enables red blood cells to carry oxygen from your lungs throughout your body (hemoglobin). In sickle cell anemia, the abnormal hemoglobin causes red blood cells to become rigid, sticky and misshapen.
The sickle cell mutation reflects a single change in the amino acid building blocks of the oxygen-transport protein, hemoglobin. This protein, which is the component that gives red cells their color, has two subunits. The alpha subunit is normal in people with sickle cell disease. The beta subunit has the amino acid valine at position 6 instead of the glutamic acid that is normally present. The alteration is the basis of all the problems that occur in people with sickle cell disease.
Answer:
<h2>True</h2>
Explanation:
1 .Reverse transcriptase (RT) is an RNA-dependent DNA polymerase enzyme which makes DNA from RNA..
2. RT makes double-stranded DNA molecules from ssRNA ( single stranded RNA) molecule using it as a template.
3. Retroviruses like HIV contain Reverse transcpritase (RT) enzyme, which uses the RNA molecule as template and make DNA from it and after that, virus make multiple copies of itself.
4. Reverse transcriptase enzyme make DNA reverse transcrptionally from RNA the process known as RNA dependent DNA polymerase.
5. It was first discovered in retroviruses.

Due to technical difficulties, the answer and explanation for this problem are available in the attached file.
Answer and Explanation:
A gene is a section of DNA. The change in the sequence of the DNA is known as mutation. Mutation always changes the sequence of the DNA. Sunlight can cause mutation. Sunlight produces structures named thymine dimers. Thymine dimers produce twist in the shape of DNA. These twists make DNA hard to copy, which can lead to mutation. It is essential to use sunscreen to block UVA and UVB rays to prevent thymine dimers from emerging in our cells. The US Food and Drug Agency recommends an SPF (sun protection factor) to defend against skin aging and skin cancer. X-ray radiation is a form used in x-rays. The energy level of the X-ray radiation is very high that can produce free radicals. Free radicals can steal electrons from DNA that can cause mutation. By using medical images, we can decrease exposure to X-rays. Less exposure to X-rays prevents mutation and also prevents the production of gene protein in other body parts.
Answer:
The volume of container determines the volume of a gas.
How?
As the gas takes the shape of container .
