Mutation - A mutation is a change in the DNA sequence of a gene.
Hemoglobin - Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body.
Genetic Code - The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded in DNA and RNA is translated into proteins.
Sickle Cell Anemia - Sickle cell anemia is a genetic disorder in which red blood cells are misshapen and can block blood flow, causing pain and other complications.
Messenger RNA - Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a type of RNA that carries instructions from DNA in the nucleus to the ribosome, where proteins are made.
Amino Acids - Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, and they are linked together in a specific sequence to form proteins according to the genetic code.
