What else can I help you with?
Can child be born with sickle cell if one parent is sickle cell carrier and another is normal?
A child has to receive the gene from both parents to heve sickle cell anemia. if only one parent passes on the gene, then the child will have sickle cell trait, but no symptoms of sickle cell anemia.
If Natasha has normal blood cell but marries someone who has sickle cell trace What are the chances of them having a child with sickle cell?
If a person does not carry the Sickle cell trait and they marry some one with the trait. The child that comes from that relationship can never have sickle cell disease, however that child has a chance of having the sickle trait.
Explain how 2 parents neither of whom have sickle cell could have a child with sickle cell?
Both were carriers.
Can sickle cell be known before birth?
Yes! If both parents have the sickle cell disease, the child will have sickle cell. Otherwise, you can Google it or bing it to see other ways.
In the genetic pedigree person U and her husband are considering having another child What is the percent chance that this child will develop sickle cell disease?
If both U and her husband are carriers of the sickle cell trait, there is a 25% chance that their child will develop sickle cell disease. This is because there is a 50% chance the child will inherit one sickle cell gene from each parent, resulting in the disease.
Is sickle cell passed on from mom or dad?
Sickle cell disease is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, meaning a child must receive a copy of the sickle cell gene from both parents to have the disease. If both parents carry the sickle cell trait (one normal and one sickle cell gene), there is a 25% chance with each pregnancy that their child will inherit the disease. Therefore, sickle cell can be passed on from either the mother or the father, or both.
What is the probability of am man and woman giving birth to a child who to is sickle cell like both of them?
If both parents are carriers of the sickle cell trait (genotype AS), there is a 25% chance that their child will inherit the sickle cell disease (genotype SS). Each parent has one normal hemoglobin allele (A) and one sickle cell allele (S), which means the possible combinations for their child are AA, AS, and SS. Therefore, the probability of the child being affected by sickle cell disease is 25%. If both parents have sickle cell disease (genotype SS), then all children will also be affected (100%).
Can a child get sickle cell at the age of sixteen?
Sickle cell disease is a genetic condition that a child inherits from their parents, and symptoms typically manifest in early childhood. A child cannot "get" sickle cell disease at the age of sixteen if they do not already have the genetic traits for it. However, if a person has the sickle cell trait, they may not show symptoms until later in life, but the underlying genetic condition is present from birth. Therefore, a child diagnosed with sickle cell disease at sixteen would have had it since birth, but symptoms may not have appeared until later.
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.
What are the chances of a person having a sickle cell disease passing the disease to their offspring?
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 if the father has sickle trait, does that mean the baby will have it?
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.
Is sickle cell anemia substitution random or does it occur under the direction of molecules that direct protein synthesis?
no.people have to get sickle cell from there mother or father and if you have a friend that have sickle cell you can`t catch thank you for leting me tell you your answer!! bye
