lol that's a dumb question
and that's a dumb answer. Yes it is always possible, to some tiny degree. The risk factor is dependent on the specific races involved. For example a person of African decent has a higher risk, than a person of hispanic or Mediterranean, and caucasian is the lowest risk of all. If one parent is caucasian the risk is pretty small. among 2 caucasians, not of middle eastern or Mediterranean, non jewish, the risk is smallest.

Which race is more commonly inherited with sickle cell disease?
Sickle cell disease is more common among blacks than among people of other races.
What groups get sickle cell disease?
A person can only inherit sickle-cell genes if some of their ancestors came from certain regions in Africa where the inhabitants carry sickle-cell genes. A person with one sickle-cell gene has sickle-cell trait, a milder problem. If both father and mother pass on sickle-cell genes, the child, with two genes, will have sickle-cell disease.
Who gets sickle cell anemia?
Anyone of any race can get sickle cell
Who has a sickle cell trait?
No. Many people become confused with that because the Sickle Cell trait is most common in Africa where the population is more black than any other race.
What are atleast facts about sickle cell anemia?
1. Sickle Cell was the 1st genetic disorder discovered2. 1 in every 500 Black babies born have Sickle Cell However any one of any race can have sickle cell this is why in more than 40 states every single baby born is tested for sickle cell 3. Sickle Pain happen because the blood flow is blocked and the tissue is dying, the same reason that people have pain from a heart attack. So think of a crises as having heart attacks all over your body 4. Pain is not the only symptom of Sickle cell, every sickle cell champion is not in pain but blood flow can be interrupted any where even in your organs this is why the most devastating thing that this disease can do is cause a STROKE. 5. There is only 1 medication that is FDA approved To treat "Sickle Cell" (many medications treat the symptoms) but HYDROYUREA is the only medication to treat the disease.
What is the race of a person with mixed race?
Mixed race.
Why has sickle cell anemia been maintained in the human population?
Sickle-Cell AnaemiaSickle cell anemia is a disease that is controlled by alleles S and s .three possible combinations are SS , Ss ans ss . The most important reason why this allele is present in whole world including America is heterozygous superiority which keeps this gene in population Several major Universities whose main function is Technology, along with the Medical Schools associated with teaching in the Children's Hospitals have begun joining forces using nanotechnology to alter the genetics of the sickle cell trait. Among them is a collaborative effort between GA Institute of Technology, Emory University Medical School, and Children's Health Care Systems of Atlanta. Once this is accomplished, plans are already in the works to move on to another deadly disease initiated with inherited genes: Cystic Fibrosis. This is an excellent collaborative use of each genre's best abilities: cooperation vs competition.I earlier times this may have been negatively associated with eugenics, however that connotation is now being transformed with the positive aspects of actually changing genetics at the microcellular level to rid populations of certain killer traits, rather than attempts at 'perfecting the human race,' as in the despicable times of Hitler. This is not a genocidal experiment, but one aimed at saving lives of painful and deathly diseases, remembering sickle cell trait is mostly among Blacks.To get a clearer picture of why the allele is still present, just remember what the Hardy-Weinberg principle predicts:both allele and genotype frequencies in a population remain constant; that is, they are in equilibrium from generation to generation unless specific disturbing influences are introduced. Those disturbing influences include non random mating, mutations, selection, limited population size, "overlapping generations," random genetic drift, gene flow and meiotic drive.Since the homozygous recessive (when the Anaemia is actually expressed) and heterozygous condition do not affect mating probabilities, the allele will naturally remain within the population.
Are mixed race people more intelligent then no mixed race people?
yes they are Im mixed race and my IQ is 180
What races get sicle cell disease?
any race can get it they say only african americans but i know a venezulan that has it
What is zendaya mixed with?
Yes, African and Dutch.
Is Fazer from N-Dubz mixed race?
Fazer is half Jamaican and he is mixed race
Are you of mixed race if you have more than one mixed race great grandparent?
Yes, you are.
