Question

Sickle cell anemia is an example of incomplete dominance.

  1. True
  2. 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.
