Match the selected genotypes with the appropriate description.
For natural selection to cause evolution, it must select for or against one or more of the genotypes for a trait. In the simple case of a trait that is determined by a single gene with two alleles, there are five combinations of genotypes that nature can select:
1. either homozygote (AA or aa but not both)
2. both homozygotes (AA and aa)
3. either homozygote and the heterozygote (AA and Aa or aa and Aa)
4. the heterozygote (Aa)
5. all alleles (AA, Aa, and aa).
Put responses in the correct input to answer the question. Select a response, navigate to the desired input and insert the response. Responses can be selected and inserted using the space bar, enter key, left mouse button or touchpad. Responses can also be moved by dragging with a mouse.
The CCR5-delta 32 gene provided immunity to a deadly disease of bacterial origin, bubonic plague. People who are homozygous for the CCR5-delta 32 gene variant are completely immune, while heterozygotes only have partial immunity and homozygous recessive have none.
Sickle cell disease - homozygous dominant contract malaria; homozygous recessive die young from sickle cell; heterozygotes immune to malaria.
An example of disruptive selection because both extremes are favored to survive.
This type of selection will result in extinction of the species as all genotypes are at a selective disadvantage.
Huntington's disease is a single gene disorder caused by a malfunctioning gene on chromosome 4. It is an autosomal dominant disease, which means that only one copy of the gene needs to be defective.

english pls?
I apologize for the confusion. Here are the genotypes matched with their appropriate descriptions:

2. The CCR5-delta 32 gene provided immunity to a deadly disease of bacterial origin, bubonic plague. People who are homozygous for the CCR5-delta 32 gene variant are completely immune, while heterozygotes only have partial immunity and homozygous recessive have none.
