Sickling of the red blood cell can be triggered by low oxygen, such as occurs in organs with slow blood flow. It can also be triggered by cold temperatures and dehydration

How does a person with sickle-cell allele differ from a person with two sickle-cell alleles?
If a person has a single sickle cell allele they will have some sickles red blood cells, and some normal red blood cells. This is the origami purpose that this evolved for. If a person had a single sickle cell allele, they will be mostly resistant to malaria. This is why sickle cell anemia is most prevalent in areas of the world where malaria is common. However, if a person has two sickle cell anemia alleles, they will have ONLY sickled red blood cells. The "sickling" of the red blood cells is caused by a mutation in the protien that the gene codes for. That protein is hemoglobin, which carries oxygen through the blood. If a person has sickle cell anemia, parts of their body wil not get enough oxygen. They can pass out, loose sensation in the limb, or even die from it. In short, a person with two alleles is sick, and a person with one allele is not.
