$(2)$ Phenylketonuria $(PKU)$ is an inborn error of metabolism caused by a recessive gene,often represented by $pp$.
$(3)$ Sickle cell anaemia is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a mutation in the $\beta$-globin chain,represented by the genotype $Hb^sHb^s$.
$(4)$ Alkaptonuria is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme homogentisate $1,2-$dioxygenase,often represented by the genotype $aa$.
Therefore,the correct matching is $(1-q), (2-s), (3-p), (4-r)$.
