The shape of the red blood cells prevented them from settling.
Sickle cell anemia is an autosomal recessive disorder. It can result from two carriers having a child together.
A normal homozygous individual can't produce offspring with sickle cell anemia. Both parents must carry the trait to have an offspring with the illness.
C. Sickle-cell anemia
Individual homozygous for the sickle cell anemia allele

Sickle cell anemia -yes it is hereditary
Yes, Sickle Cell Anemia is in fact a genetic disorder.
An example of point-mutation is sickle-cell anemia. Sickle-cell disease is hereditary.
No, sickle cell anemia and sickle cell trait are not the same. Sickle cell anemia is a severe form of the disease caused by inheriting two sickle cell genes (one from each parent), leading to significant health complications. In contrast, sickle cell trait occurs when an individual inherits only one sickle cell gene and one normal gene, typically resulting in no symptoms but allowing the person to pass the trait to their offspring.
Sickle cell anemia is an autosomal recessive disease. Carriers have sickle cell trait, which confers resistance to malaria.
