% of each phê 2. In humans, the inheritance of sickle cell anemia/trait is deter- mined by a single pair of alleles that exhibit incomplete domi- nance. Individuals homozygous for the sickling gene (s) have sickle cell anemia. In double dose (ss), the sickling gene causes production of a very abnormal hemoglobin, which crystallizes and becomes sharp and spiky under conditions of oxygen deficit. Heterozygous individuals (Ss) have the sickle cell trait; they make both normal and sickling hemoglobin. Usually these individuals are healthy, but prolonged decreases in blood oxygen levels can lead to a sickle cell crisis. Individuals with the genotype SS form normal hemoglobin. Work out the following crosses: a. Parental genotypes: SS × SS % of each genotype: 41 % of each phenotype: b. Parental genotypes: ss X Ss % of each genotype: % of each phenotype:
