This resistance has been called an evolutionary advantage. This advantage may explain the reason why a genetic condition that makes many people weak and infirm is still found in the human population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"5-13-error-analysis\">1.3 Error Analysis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"1\"><li>The sentence correctly uses the plural verb \u201c<em>seem to be<\/em>\u201d for the plural subject \u201c<em>People<\/em>\u201d.

Similarly, the use of the word \u201cseemingly\u201d in this choice presents the meaning that people who inherit the SCA gene appear to be resistant to malaria but actually are not.
