Thalassemia and sickle cell anemia are caused due to a problem in globin molecule synthesis. Select the correct statementA. Both are due to a qualitative defect in globin chain synthesisB. Both are due to a qualitative defect in globin chain synthesis.C. Thalassemia is due to less synthesis of globin molecules.D. Sickle cell anemia is due to a quantitative problem of globin molecules

Answer» Thalassemia differs from sickle-cell anaemia in that the former is a quantitative problem of synthesising too few globin molecules while the latter is a qualitative problem of synthesising an incorrectly functioning globin.
