sickle cell trait?

Question

if i have the trait and my boyfriend has sickle cell anemia and i get pregnant will my child have the trait or the whole thing

Answer 1

u * ur bf
Ss * ss
S s s s
Ss Ss ss ss

there is a 50% chance of having children diseased with sickle cell anemia and 50% chance of carrier children.

Just for ur knowledge:

There r no carrier males , only either normal or diseased.

u * partner
Ss * SS
S s S S
SS SS Ss Ss

If u marry a normal man ie not carrier or diseased , there is 50% chance of getting normal babies and 50% chance of carrier babies. Carrier pple can live a normal life.
I think this is the best solution anyways its all up to u, this was just to let u know what the big thing is.
bye tc and Happy New Year!!!!!!

Answer 2

Assuming that you mean you are heterozygous for the trait and your boyfriend is homozygous (since he 'has' sickle cell):

S I S
S SS SS
s Ss Ss

There is a 50% chance that an offspring will have sickle cell, and 50% chance it will only have trait.

Answer 3

If both of you has the trait of sickle-cell anemia (whether dominant or recessive), the sickle-cell trait will be dominant on all your children.

Answer 4

I'm not sure what you mean by trait. If you mean you are a Carrier (ie one of your parents have it, or you have show to have it partily) then you run a 50% chance of having a baby with sickle cell and the other 50% will have the "trait." Much luck to you.
