People with one sickle cell allele are not likely to get malaria. what is this an example of?

Natural selection

Explanation:

he sickle cell mutation is a like a typographical error in the DNA code of the gene that tells the body how to make a form of hemoglobin (Hb), the oxygen-carrying molecule in our blood.

sickled cells can become stuck in small blood vessels, causing a "crisis" of pain, fever, swelling, and tissue damage that can lead to death. This is sickle cell anemia.

sickle cell anemia carriers have been naturally selected, because the trait has some resistance to malaria. Their red blood cells, containing some abnormal hemoglobin, tend to sickle when they are infected by the malaria parasite. Those infected cells flow through the spleen, which culls them out because of their sickle shape - and the parasite is eliminated along with them.

Natural selection        is the answer
