Sickle cell anemia is an autosomal recessive disorder. A female who is a carrier of the sickle cell trait gives birth to one unaffected child and one child with sickle cell disease. Determine the genotype and trait of their father. (HbA is the normal hemoglobin allele and HbS is the sickle cell hemoglobin allele)
