Step-by-step solution
Sickle-cell anaemia is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by the substitution of Glutamic acid by Valine at the sixth position of the beta-globin chain. Thalassemia is a quantitative defect resulting in a reduced rate of synthesis of globin chains. Phenylketonuria is an inborn error of metabolism caused by the lack of the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase, which converts phenylalanine to tyrosine. Haemophilia is a sex-linked recessive disorder where a single protein involved in the blood clotting cascade is affe
