Bio Term sickle-cell anemia is Potentially lethal human disease, inherited as an autosomal recessive, caused by a mutation in a gene coding for the beta subunit of the oxygen-transporting protein haemoglobin. Under conditions of low oxygen tension, the altered beta-globin molecule causes haemoglobin to aggregate forming rod-like arrays that distort the cell membrane forcing red blood cells to become sickle-shaped. The sickled red blood cells are damaged and rapidly removed from the circulation causing anaemia.

Bio Term photoautotroph is A type of autotroph that uses light as an energy source to synthesize organic compounds from inorganic materials. Green plants are photoautotrophs.
