Question
Sickle cell anemia is an example of incomplete dominance.
- True
- False
Hint:
Sickle cell anemia is an example of co-dominance.
The correct answer is 'False'.
- Sickle cell anemia is a genetic disorder in which the red blood cells become sickle shaped instead of the normal biconcave shape.
- In aa heterozygous organism both sickle shaped and biconcave shaped cells are present.
- Since both the alleles express themselves completely without any blending hence it is an example of codominance.
