What genetic disorder occurs primarily in African Americans?
Sickle Cell Anemia
What is an anual high tide called?
An annual high tide is called a spring tide. This occurs when the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned, leading to higher-than-normal high tides and lower-than-normal low tides.
How many spring tides do you have in a lunar cycle?
There are typically two spring tides in a lunar cycle. This occurs when the gravitational forces of the Sun and Moon align, causing higher than normal high tides and lower than normal low tides.
What type of stimulis is it when endocrine organs are prodded into action by other hormones?
This type of stimulus is called hormonal stimulation. It occurs when one hormone signals another endocrine gland to release its own hormone to regulate physiological processes in the body.
Which genetic disorder occurs primarily in African Americans?
Sickle cell anemia is a genetic disorder that primarily occurs in African Americans. It is caused by a mutation in the gene that makes hemoglobin, resulting in abnormal red blood cells that can cause blockages in blood vessels and organ damage.
Is a disorder of the endocrine system that occurs when the sugar level in the blood is higher than normal?
Diabetes.
What is an anxiety disorder?
An anxiety disorder is any of a category of mental disorders, usually characterized with worry about future events and a reaction to current events.
What is body temperature that is higher than normal?

How is it possible for someone to carry a disorder but not actually have it?
This most commonly occurs if the disorder is recessive, meaning you must carry two copies of the gene which causes the disorder in order to show it.Everyone has two copies of each gene, one paternal and one maternal. If you only carry one copy (allele) of the gene which causes the recessive disorder and your other copy of that gene is normal, you will not have the disorder. However, you can carry it on if you have a child with someone else who also carries the gene which causes the disorder and the child gets two copies of the disorder gene.
How can acromegaly disease effect the endocrine system?
Acromegaly is the disease itself caused by the malfunctioning of endocrine gland. It occurs due to the over or hyper secreation of endocrine glands in adults in which appereance become gorilla-like due to enlargment of limbs and lower jaw.
What is a familial disorder?
It is a disease/disorder that occurs more in families than by chance alone. (i.e. it is hereditary in cause or susceptibility)
Why is a spring tide significantly higher than a normal high tide?
A spring tide is significantly higher than a normal high tide because it occurs when the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned, causing their gravitational forces to combine and create stronger tidal effects.
