BIOD 210 Final Exam: Questions And Accurate Answers
White blood cells Right Ans - Karyotyping is typically done by isolating
________ from a person, staining them, and taking pictures under a microscope
People who inherit a mutant copy of the β-globulin protein from both parents
have sickle-cell anemia. The mutant β-globulin causes the hemoglobin within
red blood cells to distort when the oxygen in the blood is low, and in fact,
deforms the cell shape so much that the distorted cells break very easily. In
turn, the loss of the broken cells lowers the total number of red blood cells,
resulting in anemia
In addition, the odd shape of the red blood cells actually causes blockages in
small blood vessels, which causes pain and damage to the brain, heart,
muscles, and kidneys. The condition is especially exacerbated under
atmospheric conditions where oxygen is lower, so people with sickle-cell
anemia can become extremely sick at high altitudes. Right Ans - Describe
Sickle Cell Anemia

parental strains are mated that contrast ONLY in the trait that is being
