1. Another word for chemical weathering is b. disintegration
Chemical weathering is a process by which the rocks are broken down into parts and sediments by the action of a chemical agent such as alkali or acid. The disintegration can be a natural process by which a solid body is broken down into parts or subparts.
2. d. moving water is not an agent of chemical weathering agent.
The chemical weathering can be caused by the agents like lichens which secretes acid on the rock surface and causes it's disintegration, acid rain and salt water are chemical agents that can cause the disintegration of the rock but moving water will have little influence on the hard rock surface.

Sickle cell disease in an autosomal recessive inherited disease which is caused by the mutation in the HBB (hemoglobin-β gene) gene present on the chromosome no. 11. In sickle cell, the red blood cells become sickle shape due to the abnormal shape of hemoglobin present in it.
These sickle cells are known to form a blockage in the blood vessels thereby causing damage to the vital organs. Human spleen constantly destroys sickle cells because they get trapped in it which causes a disease called sickle cell anemia.
Sickle cell anemia is normally the problem in genetic disease which is inherited from the parents to children. When both the DNA strand has a mutation in their HBB gene then only this disease will affect the individual.
