100%

The most common allele of the β chain of hemoglobin in humans, ???,H⁢bA, has glutamic acid at the sixth position. Two different amino acid substitutions at the sixth position produce two variants, ???H⁢bS and ???,H⁢bC, of the sickle‑cell allele. The ???H⁢bS allele occurs when valine is substituted for glutamic acid, and the ???H⁢bC allele occurs when lysine is substituted for glutamic acid. To answer the question, refer to the amino acid table.

Match the class of amino acid and the chemical property to each possible amino acid. Not all answers will be placed.
