yes it does
Describe the effect that sickle cell anemia has on the sedimentation rate!
If you have beta thalassemia trait and your partner has sickle cell trait there is a 25% chance of your child having sickle beta thalassemia.
It is impossible to predict what will happen with one person! In a population of 2,000 people, 1,000 women have sickle cell trait and 1,000 men do not. They marry. Each couple has 2 children. 1,000 children will have sickle cell trait and 1,000 children will not. In a population of 2,000 people, 1,000 women have sickle cell trait and 1,000 men have sickle cell trait. They marry. Each couple has 2 children. 1,000 children will have sickle cell trait, 500 children will not, and 500 children will have sickle cell anemia. No one knows which of those parents will produce which children. No one knows how to predict how your children will turn out.
blood
The person is homozygous for the trait
Children with sickle cell anemia may have delayed growth and reach puberty at a later age than normal
If one parent has sickle cell trait and the other parent has the normal type of hemoglobin, there is a 50% (1 in 2) chance with EACH pregnancy that the baby will be born with sickle cell trait.
There are some people in the society who try to capitalize the chronic illnesses like the sickle cell anemia. But then they are the ones who take care of the children and not you.
If one represents a sickle cell gene thus "C" and a normal gene thus "O" then both parents are: Mum CO Dad CO The possibilities for their children are therefore CC OO CO CO in those proportion so 1in 4 will have sickle cell anaemia, 2 in 4 will be carriers (like their parents) and 1/4 will be normal.
what's biracial mean
Only if they have 2 parents with the trait(gene) or disease
Sickle-cell anemia affects black people more than other groups. There is some indication that sickle-cell gives a survival benefit for some tropical diseases, such as the Malaria parasite.
