Sickle cell anaemia IS a disease of the leucocytes?
No, sickle cell anemia is a disease of the hemocytes, the red blood cells. Leucocytes are one type of white blood cell.
What type of anemia does a gene mutation cause?
A certain substitution in human DNA changes the code for hemoglobin; this ultimately results in sickle-cell anima.
Sickle cell anemia is an example of what type of inheritance?
polygenic inheritance . doug says " squirrel". hes a fat dog.
Sickle cell anemia is classified as a?
Sickle cell anemia is classified as a type of inherited blood disorder where red blood cells become crescent-shaped due to a genetic mutation affecting hemoglobin. This mutation can lead to various complications like anemia, organ damage, and pain crises. Treatment options focus on managing symptoms and preventing complications.
How is sickle cell anemia spread?
When you walk past someone who sneezes. The anemia gets its sickle into your cells that way. This is wrong^^^^ This is the correct answer: Sickle cell anemia is caused by an abnormal type of hemoglobin called hemoglobin S. Hemoglobin is a protein inside red blood cells that carries oxygen. Hemoglobin S changes the shape of red blood cells, especially when the cells are exposed to low oxygen levels. The red blood cells become shaped like crescents or sickles. ( its passed down from parents to offspring, if they have the trait )

What is a type of red blood cell disorder?
One type of red blood cell disorder is sickle cell anemia, a genetic condition in which red blood cells become rigid and sticky, leading to blockages in blood vessels and reduced oxygen delivery to tissues.
What type of chromosomal disorder causes sickle cell anemia?

What type of anemia is a genetic disease typically found among people of African descent?
the disease is sickle cell
Is sickle cell anemia congenital?
Sickle-cell is inherited from parents just as physical traits. People with the disease are SS type and show the anemia. Others can carry the trait (Ss). They are able to fight off malaria. Since this type (Ss) is important in areas with many malaria cases, this is protective.
