Sickle-cell anemia is a disease of the red blood cells. a person who carries one sickle-cell gene is physically normal, but has the potential to pass on the sickle-cell trait to his or her offspring. in a person with two sickle-cell genes, the blood cells collapse and cannot carry enough oxygen to the body's cells. this person can have fatal anemia. based on this information, which statement best describes the gene for sickle-cell anemia?

9. sickle cell anemia is a genetic disease that affects the red blood cells. your red blood cells are typically donut shaped and have the job of carrying oxygen around your body. in people with sickle cell anemia, the blood cells become crescent-shaped and are thick and sticky. they are not as able to carry oxygen, and can even get clogged in the blood vessels blocking the flow of blood, and therefore oxygen to organs, causing pain and organ damage. sickle cell is caused by a genetic mutation that changes a single glutamic acid to valine in the 6th amino acid position. examine the codon chart provided above (for #s 3-5), and determine what mutation likely occurred to cause the change from glutamic acid (glu) to valine (val). to get you started, it is to know that a person with no sickle cell at amino acid #6 has a dna code of ctc.

Sickle-cell anemia is a genetic disorder of the blood in which the shape of red blood cells is distorted, resulting in a variety of health problems. the allele for normal blood cell production (h) is dominant to the allele for sickle cell production (h). if one parent has sickle-cell anemia and the other parent is a carrier, what is the probability that their child will have sickle-cell anemia? a. 100% b. 50% c. 75% d. 25% punnet square h h h ? ? h ? ?
