An allele that causes an altered form of hemoglobin occurs in all human populations as a result of mutation. However in populations where malaria is a threat there is a relatively higher percentage of individuals with the allele. Individuals who have one allele for this condition have an increased resistance to malaria. Individuals with two alleles for this condition have significant medical problems and die young. This allele has been found in high numbers in certain populations in West Africa, Southeast Asia and Greece. 1) What process of evolution likely led to the appearance of this allele

After frida stops exercising, she continues to breathe heavily. what is most likely occurring in her body? heavy breathing during exercise has produced an oxygen surplus in her muscles. this oxygen is being transported to her lungs. this is a result of aerobic respiration. heavy breathing during exercise has produced a carbon dioxide surplus in her muscles. lactate is being transported to her liver. this is a result of aerobic respiration. strenuous exercise has caused her body to be in carbon dioxide debt, and she is breathing hard while lactate is transported to the liver. this is a result of anaerobic respiration. strenuous exercise has caused her body to be in oxygen debt, and she is breathing hard while lactate is transported to the liver. this is a result of anaerobic respiration.
