Down syndrome, Hemophilia, and Sickle cell anemia are all genetic disorders caused by mutations in specific genes. These disorders can lead to various health complications and require ongoing medical management. Additionally, individuals with these conditions may need specialized care and support to maintain their health and well-being.
Sorry there is no cure only treatment.
No, sickle cell anemia is a disease of the hemocytes, the red blood cells. Leucocytes are one type of white blood cell.
Hemophilia is inherited in an X-linked recessive pattern, meaning it primarily affects males who inherit the affected X chromosome from their carrier mother. Sickle cell anemia is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, meaning both parents must pass on a mutated gene for the child to develop the condition regardless of gender.
Two genetic diseases besides Down syndrome are cystic fibrosis, which affects the lungs and digestive system, and Huntington's disease, which is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects motor function and cognitive abilities.
# They are SO numerous: Angelman's syndrome, Huntington's Disease, Hemophilia, Turner Syndrome, Tay-Schs disease, sickle cell anemia, Praeder-Willi Syndrome, neurofibromatosis, Klinefelter syndrome, phenylketonuria, Down's Syndrome, Cystic Fibrosis, celiac disease, color blindness, cri du chat, Canavan disease, Duchenne muscular distrophy, Charcot-Marie Tooth Disease, 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, achondroplasia and many, many more.
all of them are caused by genetic mutations
natural selection and heredity Americans are affected with sickle cell anaemia which mostly affects black people.
evolutionary advantage means that if you have to types of sickle cell anaemia and one is resistant to a drug the the other one is not then the one that is not resistant dies off and the sickle cell anaemia that is resistant becomes dominant and that is why sickle cell anaemia is still so widespread in Africa because the strain that is widespread in Africa is resistant is anti-biotics.
Malaria is common in topical ad subtropical zones. The malaria has selected the people with sickle cell anaemia. Although person with sickle cell anemia can have malaria, the carrier, or the person with sickle cell trait is resistant to malaria.
false
Most of them I would imagine.
Sorry there is no cure only treatment.
yes
antherosclerosis
15000 people with sickle cell in the UK i think
Sickle Cell Anaemia is a genetic disorder that affects the red blood cells. The shape of the cells are changed from being round and flexible to sickle or crescent shaped. These abnormal cells can then clog the blood vessels, causing extreme pain and discomfort. These episodes are known as sickle cell crisis.
Yes, Sickle cell affects the red blood cells while hemophilia is a condition where an extracellular protein is deficient in the person's blood.
