Abnormal Hemoglobins in Human Populations (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Research on abnormal human hemoglobins (protein in blood that carries oxygen), has taught us about the inheritance, biochemistry, and distribution of these traits. This book discusses the relation of abnormal hemoglobins to endemic malaria and, shows how natural selection pressures explain the known distribution of these traits.
