a child must inherit two copies of the defective gene in order to have a cystics fibrosis but when it come to sickle-cell anemia it is a disease passed down through families in which red blood cells from an abnormal sickle or crescent shape.Red blood cells carry oxygen to the body and are normally shaped like a disc so what causes sickle-cell anemia is the two copies that they get from both parents which gets passed down through families.
Sickle cell anemia is not sex linked.
Hemoglobin SS disease (Hb SS)
Yes, sickle cell anemia is a type of poikilocytosis, which is a condition characterized by the presence of abnormally shaped red blood cells in the bloodstream. In sickle cell anemia, the red blood cells are crescent or sickle-shaped due to a genetic mutation in the hemoglobin protein.
Folic acid helps the body make red blood cells and can improve the symptoms of anemia by supporting the production of healthy red blood cells. However, folic acid supplements will not directly affect the underlying cause of sickle cell anemia, which is a genetic disorder affecting hemoglobin.
sickle cell anemia is releated with RBC . RBC will change in size ( microcytic ) and shap will change (sickling shap) that are cause in blokers vascular > then cause hypoxia in some organes that is cause tachycardia and shortness breath some time palor
no it dose not sickle cell anemia causes death only if African Americans
Genetics
No.
Mutations in the hemoglobin molecules cause sickle cell anemia.
yes
Sickle cell anemia.
Sickle cell anemia.
You get Sickle-Cell Anemia by Birth,it is a genetic disorder.
An example of point-mutation is sickle-cell anemia. Sickle-cell disease is hereditary.
Yes
Sickle cell anemia is an autosomal recessive disease. Carriers have sickle cell trait, which confers resistance to malaria.
Yes, Sickle Cell Anemia is in fact a genetic disorder.
