BACKGROUND: Sickle cell disease is caused by a change in the gene for hemoglobin, which is
the oxygen-carrying protein in red blood cells. Individuals who are homozygous for the sickle
cell trait often cannot endure exercise. Individuals who are heterozygous for the trait can have
sickle cell attacks under extreme conditions. Normal individuals (genotype: Hbnorm Hbnorm ) have
only normal hemoglobin. Homozygous sickle cell individuals (genotype: Hb³c Hbsc ) have only
sickle cell hemoglobin. Heterozygous individuals (genotype: Hbnorm Hbsc ) have both normal and
sickle cell hemoglobin.
Jerry Smith collapsed while running a race for his track team. A doctor said he had a sickle cell
attack. Genetic tests were run on several family members. The test results are shown below. An
X indicates that form of hemoglobin in red blood cells.
PROBLEM: How can you determine the genotypes of people in a family?
Subject
Normal Hemoglobin
Sickle Cell Hemoglobin
Jerry
Jerry's brother
Jerry's younger sister
Jerry's youngest sister
Jerry's father
Jerry's grandfather
Jerry's grandmother
PROCEDURE
1. Use the background information and the genetic test results to answer questions 1-4.
2. Use the background information and a Punnett square to help you answer question 5.
ANALYZE AND CONCLUDE
1. Are any of Jerry's siblings homozygous for the sickle cell trait? Are any of Jerry's siblings
heterozygous for the sickle cell trait?
2. What genotype if Jerry's father?
3. What genotypes are Jerry's grandparents?
4. What is the genotype of Jerry's mother? Explain.
5. If Jerry marries a female who is heterozygous for the sickle cell trait, what would be the
possible genotypes and phenotypes of their childres, according to your Punnett square?
