Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The thalassemias are a group of inherited hematologic disorders caused by defects in the synthesis of one or more of the hemoglobin chains. 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.
Detailed explanation-2: -Alpha and beta thalassemia are inherited hemoglobinopathies in which impaired production of one type of globin chain (alpha chains in alpha thalassemia; beta chains in beta thalassemia) causes an imbalance in the ratio between alpha and beta (or beta-like) chains, which is normally tightly controlled.
