Would the normal red blood cells or sickle cells be better at transporting oxygen?

The normal red blood cells would be better because sickled red blood cells clump and are not circulated as well as normal red blood cells are.

In a sickle cell decease variation in one gene causes red blood cells to bend or sickle. this means the sickle cell?
Cannot carry normal levels of oxygen to cells :) *NovaNet*
What is the difference between sickle cell and blood cell?
Sickle cells are a sickle or crescent shape that can only carry a fractional amount of oxygen and nutrients. Normal cells are shaped like doughnuts.

Why is a sickle cell less efficient at carrying oxygen around the body the normal red blood cells?
Hi i have the answer to ur ques sickle cells are half in which they cannot do it very well thanks hope this helped
How is the DNA in the Sickle Cell allele different from the normal allele?
Normally, the 6th position of the beta chain of hemoglobin is a Glutamic acid, encoded on the DNA as GAG. The sickle cell mutation has the sequence GTG, resulting in a Valine in the 6th position instead.
Why cant people with sickle cell do a lot of exercise?
Exercising cost lot of energy.So Oxygen requirement increase.People with sickle cells, do not have normal number of blood cells to carry Oxygen.So energy production would not be sufficient.
Compare the normal allele for hemoglobin with the sickle cell allele How does this difference affect the persons red blood cells?
The amino acid sequence of the sickle cell allele for hemoglobin varies from the normal allele for hemoglobin by one amino acid. The sickle cell allele for hemoglobin has valine instead of glutamic acid. When the oxygen level of the blood decreases, the hemoglobin molecules come out of solution, stick together, and form long chains that cause the red blood cells to become sickle shaped.
Q Sickle cells are red blood cells that stick together and become stiffer after they deliver oxygen Explain why a sickle cell is less efficient at carrying oxygen around the body than normal red blo?
because the body becomes stiff to produce asmah which is know to be a cell.
