Individual who possess the Rh positive blood type e.g A positive, O positive, AB positive, are said to be rhesus positive while those with negative symbol are said to be rhesus negative. Rhesus factor is inherited from parents, usually the father. If you are rhesus positive (RhD positive), this implies that the protein (D antigen) is present on the surface of your red blood cells, however, if you lack the D antigen, you will be rhesus negative (RhD negative). Over 75% of humans are rhesus positive. Having Rh negative blood type does not make you unhealthy, apparently, it doesn't affect your health. Rhesus status only become an issue of concern when a woman whose rhesus status is negative get pregnant and the baby she's carrying is rhesus positive, this is known as Rhesus Incompatibility.

The red blood cells contains hemoglobin : Hemoglobin is a substance which helps in carrying oxygen to the tissues. Hemoglobin comprise of - Heme and Globin; the heme and globin are two pairs of protein chain. When we have an amino acid substitution, specifically in the globin chain, then certainly, there is an abnormality. Note : Amino acid are the building blocks of protein.      Let's say the chain suppose to consist of amino acid 'D' but it is instead substituted for 'F' at a particular point of the chain, then, there is definitely an error which would lead to abnormality.             Types of genotype - AA :  At the sixth position of both Globin chains, we have 'Glutamate'(Normal) - AC : At the sixth position of one ...
