yes there are two concentrations of sickle cell they are: sickle cell trait: co-dominance is established and only 50% of your cells are malformed sickle cell anemia: sickle cell is totally dominant and all cells are malformed, this only happens when both alleles are coded for sickle cell
What are abnormal crescent shaped BLOOD cell?
Abnormal crescent-shaped blood cells are known as sickle cells, which are characteristic of sickle cell disease. This genetic condition causes red blood cells to become rigid and curved, leading to blockages in blood vessels and reduced oxygen delivery to tissues. Sickle cell disease can result in pain, organ damage, and other serious complications.

Does sickle cell anaemia have white blood cells?
Sickle Cell Anaemia is a genetic disorder that affects the red blood cells. The shape of the cells are changed from being round and flexible to sickle or crescent shaped. These abnormal cells can then clog the blood vessels, causing extreme pain and discomfort. These episodes are known as sickle cell crisis.
Why are red blood cells sickle shaped in a person with sickle cell disease?
Sickle cell is common in people from tropical areas where malaria is prevalent. Malaria can not survive on blood cells that are sickle shaped, so when populations were being killed off by malaria, those with sickle cell were surviving and passing on the sickle cell gene.
