How can sickle cell disease sufferers inherit sickle cell?

Biology

You inherit one set from your mother and one set from your father. To be born with sickle cell disease, a child has to inherit a copy of the sickle cell gene from both their parents. This usually happens when both parents are “carriers” of the sickle cell gene, also known as having a sickle cell trait

Answer:

hi!

Explanation:

If 2 parents are carrying sickle cell with them, if there child receives 1 different copy from each of the parents, they have sickle cell. but those  parent's who are carrying the sickle cell do not get it, they can only pass it down. So if a child gets a Sickle cell gene (S), and a sickle cell gene (A) they get sickle cell.

I hope this helped! If it didnt, ill fix my answer! just let me know!

HI~ I hope this helps

(these answers were hand-written meaning I did not copy and paste so, feel free to use the answers freely)

1.

When ecosystems change rapidly the fundamental environmental cycles such as the circulation of water, carbon and nutrients can change as ecosystems depend on them. The usage of factors such as freshwater, carbon dioxide emissions and fertilizer provides a large benefit to humas therefore meaning, that large and rapid changes to an ecosystem could also effect the things we as humans rely on.

2.  

Complex organic matter is broken down by decomposers into carbon dioxide, water etc. The ecosystem is affected based upon the fact that the decomposition of organic matter that is produced by plants, animals and soil organisms is an important process which affects the different important ecosystem processes like nutrient cycling and carbon sequestration.

3. (could have two answers- I recommend the second)

Adaptation- due to the mutation process which results in changes in the structure and function of organisms, these ecosystems would be different as well as unique. The organisms which possesses the traits needed to adapt could then survive as its unique characteristics due to mutation would provide a strong ability

Rise in temperature- If the temperature located on earth was to rise, organisms would have a higher living rate as bacterial life flourishes in warmer temperatures and dies out in colder ones.

4.

~The rapid change of increased food production provides better life sustainability to those living in the ecosystem.

~The rapid change in a large increasing number of organisms could be helpful as they often live of off one another.

5.

~Rapid growth of things such as phytoplankton which cause dead zones are harmful to the ecosystem. Dead zones create zones where too much oxygen is consumed resulting in areas where plants and sea life can no longer survive.

~Whereas the rapid increase of organisms could also be harmful to an ecosystem as the possibility of the organism outnumbering the food sources could become prominent.

The main dietary factor associated with elevated blood cholesterol is?
Korolek [52]

The main dietary factor associated with elevated blood cholesterol is saturated fat.

<h3>What about saturated fat?</h3>
  • Because they increase the amount of LDL cholesterol in our blood, saturated fats, sometimes known as "bad fats," increase the risk of cardiovascular disorders (including heart disease and stroke).
  • Cholesterol that is circulated in the blood.
  • The majority of this cholesterol is produced by the body, however some is also absorbed from the meals you eat.
  • Even if they include fat, foods derived from plants never contain cholesterol.
  • Only foods from animals do. Low density lipoproteins are able to transport cholesterol.
  • Dietary fat, particularly saturated and trans fats, may increase LDL and total cholesterol levels in the blood.
  • Blood cholesterol levels may be lowered by substituting polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, particularly olive and canola oil, for some saturated fats.
  • When we consume too much saturated fat, the receptors stop functioning as effectively, and blood cholesterol levels rise.

How might it be possible for a child to show a trait that neither of the parents showed?​
e-lub [12.9K]

A person can only show a recessive trait if both of their parents carried at least one copy of each of the recessive allele. The parents do not need to show the trait, as one copy is not enough to reveal it, but they must both carry it.

Hope this helped!

when Na lost e it shrank and the CI+ grew in size does that say anything about the location of the electrons before and after it
ValentinkaMS [17]

<span>We know that electrons are occupied on a cloud surrounding the nucleus. So which means that the bigger the electron cloud, the bigger the number of electrons. So in this case, since Na shrank so it lost some electrons. And since Cl+ grew in size of the electron cloud so electron was added to it.</span>
