(N/A)       Haemophilia    Sickle-cell Anaemia        $(1)$ It occurs due to a defective recessive allele present on the $X$-chromosome.    $(1)$ It occurs due to point mutation,i.e.,a single base pair change leads to a change in amino acid.        $(2)$ The defective allele produces a non-functional protein involved in the blood clotting cascade.    $(2)$ In this,glutamic acid $(Glu)$ is replaced by valine $(Val)$ at the sixth position of the beta-globin chain of the haemoglobin molecule.        $(3)$ It is a sex-linked recessive disorder.    $(3)$ It is an autosomal-linked recessive disorder.        $(4)$ More males are affected than females.    $(4)$ Both males and females are affected equally.
