The most appropriate for thalassemia decrease of either beta (B) or alpha (a) globin chain of HbA
Explanation:
- Thalassemia is caused due to decreased formation of alpha or beta chains of haemoglobin.
- The deletion occurs in globin gene that leads to decreased formation of globin chains.
- There are two types of thalassemia-the one is caused due to alteration in beta chain and other is caused due to alteration in alpha chain.
- This disease directly affects the red blood cell formation, that is, erythropoiesis.
- Alpha thalassemia is caused by reduced or absent synthesis of alpha globin chains, and beta thalassemia is caused by reduced or absent synthesis of beta globin chains.

(a) decrease of either beta (B) or alpha (a) globin chain of HbA
Explanation:
- The Thalassemia is an autosomal recessive blood genetic disorder. As the blood is made from the Hb and consists of Haemon and globin that protein and the nonprotein part.
- It is a combination of polypeptides. Due to the deflection or mutation of the polypeptide gene, this hemoglobin becomes nonfunctional and can cause disaster.
