What gene is affected by type 1 diabetes?
Chromosome 2
Who is affected by sickle cell anemia?
Sickle cell anemia is a genetic blood disorder affecting individuals who inherit two copies of the abnormal hemoglobin gene from both parents. This primarily affects people of African, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and South Asian descent.
What gene is affected in prader willi syndrome?

What gene or chromosome is affected by down syndrome?
Chromosome 21 is tripled in Down syndrome.
States were chromosomes pair was affected by the Thomsen disease?
Chromosome number 8. (Gene: RECQL4 gene.)
Where is the beta globin gene?
The beta globin gene is located on chromosome 11 in humans. It codes for the beta globin protein, which is a subunit of hemoglobin found in red blood cells. Mutations in this gene can lead to conditions such as sickle cell anemia and beta thalassemia.
What various types of genetic material in order from simplest to most complex?
nucleus → chromosome → gene
List these in order from smallest to largest chromosome gene cell?
Smallest to largest: Gene (a place on a chromosome); chromosome (there are 46 in human cells); and DNA (because it accounts for all the genetic material in a cell).
How is sickle cell anemia inherited?
This is inherited on the X chromoseome and is recessive. This means a female (who has XX chromosome pair) can only express the disease if she carries the trait on both chromosomes. This is because of the recessive nature of the gene. A male can only inherit the disease from his mother. This is he must have obtained his Y chromosome from his father so he obtains the X chromosome from his mother. A male cannot carry the gene without expressing it as he doesnt have another X chromosome to supress the recessive gene. ^ This answer is biologically incorrect because Sickle cell Anemia is actually autosomal recessive, not sex-linked recessive; this means that males and females are affected equally and it is NOT carried on the X chromosome. In order for the trait to show up in an individual, BOTH parents must be carriers of the disease (at least 1 sickle cell gene must be present).
What gene is affected by Barth syndrome?
Barth syndrome occurs when a person is born with a mutated, or abnormal, TAZ1 (or G4.5) gene. This abnormal gene is located on the X chromosome, which is a sex-determining chromosome. Males have one X and one Y chromosome, while females have two X chromosomes.
Is sickle cell anemia x-chromosome or non x-chromosome?
Sickle cell anemia is not sex linked.
What is n-t a trait that is the result of or is affected by the interaction of more than one gene?
sickle cell anemia
