Sickle cell anemia is an autosomal recessive disease. Carriers have sickle cell trait, which confers resistance to malaria.
Sickle cell anemia is an autosomal recessive disorder. It can result from two carriers having a child together.

Sickle cell anemia is genetic. It is an autosomal recessive disease.

C. Sickle-cell anemia
Sickle Cell Anemia is Autosomal Recessive. It arises from a mutation on the beta-globin gene of chromosome 11. Because Sickle Cell Anemia is an example of incomplete dominance, a person has the disease if they have two mutated beta-globin genes but only has the trait (is a carrier) if they have only one mutated beta-globin gene.
sickle cell anemia is caused by a recessive allele. so for it to affect someone, it means that the person must have received both recessive alleles from their parents. Being a carrier means that you have the recessive allele from one of your parents, but you have a normal dominant allele from the other parent, that means you are not affected by it but you are carrying it.
Huntingtons disease is Autosomal dominant, i.e. a 50% chance of inheritance if one parent has the gene. Where as sickle cell anemia is autosomal recessive. This gives a 25% chance of inheritance if both parents are carriers.
No, if both parents are homozygous dominant for normal red blood cells, their offspring will inherit two normal alleles and will not be at risk of developing sickle cell anemia. Sickle cell anemia is a recessive genetic disorder that occurs when an individual inherits two copies of the mutated allele.
Yes, Sickle Cell-Anemia is a genetic condition that is passed down from one generation to the other.
im not really sure, but i think it is.
