Question

If malaria were eliminated from a certain area, how do you think the frequency of the sickle cell allele in that area would change

Answer 1

sickle cell is a genetic disorder, so eliminating malaria would effect the frequency?

Answer 2

Answer:

The frequency of the sickle-cell allele is higher in places with malaria, so eliminating malaria would cause the frequency of the sickle-cell allele to decrease.
