2. Stomatocytes are basically erythrocytes which is a red blood cells and appears like a "coffee beans" the similarity between stomatocytes and codocytes is their structure which is a bull's eye. Because of the abnormality in their structure the hemoglobin production is reduced and fragility of the cell membrane is increased, ultimately causing early haemolysis which happens in Thalassemia. This is usually hereditary and may cause death in infants and children in severe cases.

5. (2pts) a-thalassemia is a human genetic condition resulting in severe anemia because blood cells can not efficiently carry oxygen to body tissues. a- thalassemia occurs when the HBA1 gene is mutant such that no protein product is made or a non-functional protein is produced. Recently, microRNAs have been implicated in regulating expression of the HBA1 gene. Below is microarray data showing the amount of expression of different microRNAs where each row corresponds to the different miRNA indicated on the...

Grinch Meister has just been told that he has a condition called pernicious anemia. Mr. Meister looked up the disease on the Internet and learned that it is caused by a decreased availability of vitamin B12. What are the effects of this condition? What treatment is available for Grinch Meister?
