What does AS and SS under blood group mean?
Under blood group, the letters AS and SS are used in reference to sickle cell disease. AC means that one is carrying the sickle cell disease gene while SS means that one has sickle cell disease.
What are other names for sickle cell anemia?
Hemoglobin SS disease (Hb SS)
For sickle-cell disease assume S is the dominant allele and s the recessive allele Which genotypes are possible for offspring of a carrier (Ss) and a person who lacks the sickle-cell allele (SS)?
SS,Ss
Why is a man genotype Cc?
CC is the phenotype for sickle cell anemia. They can also have SS or SC genotypes. These people can marry only some other genotypes and not have their children develop the disease.
A child has sickle-cell disease (ss) but neither parent is ill What must be true of her parents genotypes?
The parents are both recessive (Ss) for sickle cell anemia.
If a child has sickle-cell disease (ss) but neither parent is ill. What must be true of he parents' genotypes?
The parents are both recessive (Ss) for sickle cell anemia.
Can you spread sickle cell?
Sickle cell is not a germ, it's a disease! The spreading of this disease occurs when two people carry the trait of sickle cell in their genetic makeup and they have children. The odds of any child born to parents who carry the trait are different each time. 50% can be born with just trait, 1 out of 4 will be born with Sickle Cell Anemia and 1 out of 4 will be born without anything. Then there are varied levels of Sickle Cell, there's Anemia (SS), Disease (SC). it is heredity
A child has sickle-cell disease (ss) but neither parent is ill. What must be true of her parents and rsquo genotypes?
The parents are both recessive (Ss) for sickle cell anemia.
What is meniscocytosis also called?
It is also called sickle cell anemia, sicklemia, or SS disease
What is SS disease also called?
It is also called sickle cell anemia, meniscocytosis, or sicklemia
What is sicklemia also called?
It is also called sickle cell anemia, meniscocytosis, or SS disease
What can cause a attack of sickle cell anemia?
Although sickle cell anemia(SS) and sickle cell disease(SC) are considered genetic mutations, I believe the question is...What are possible causes for a sickle cell attack? Anything that causes a constriction of the blood vessels would seem to be a cause. Smoking, coffee, and alcohol to name a few. Dehydration also appears to play a big role.
