What are the three parts of a nucleotide?
Sugar, Phosphate, and Nitrogen base
What is Translation
The process of reading the RNA code to make the amino acid chain/Protein
Is it possible for both parents to NOT have sickle celled anemia and their child does? Explain
Both parents would be a carrier of the recessive trait
They would both have to be heterozygous
