Sickle cell anemia affects the red blood cells by doing this.
Red Blood Cells turning into a half moon shape and clogging the blood vessels, thus oxygen cannot get to the body.

For his research to be valid, Mendel needed to cross two _____

Why do more males exhibit X-Linked recessive traits?
Males only have one X chromosome, therefore, they only need one recessive gene rather than two to show the trait.

Plants can self-pollinate.
