Sickle Cell Anaemia and Cystic Fibrosis are both genetic disorders. They are both caused by a rece**ive allele. This means that only a homozygous dominant person can inherit this disease.
Example: Sickle Cell Anaemia
S= dominant allele s=rece**ive allele
Po**ible combinations: **- homozygous dominant. Not affected.
**- heterozygous. Not affected but a carrier. Rece**ive allele can be pa**ed on
**- homozygous rece**ive. A sufferer of sickle cell.
