Describe the effect that sickle cell anemia has on the sedimentation rate (sample 3. why do you think that it has this effect?
Eva8 [605]
Sickle cell anemia is a genetic condition that distorts the shape of the hemoglobin. This reduces the capacity of the red blood cells to carry oxygen. Another effect is that the distorted red blood cells come together forming a heavy and compact collection of cells that can block the flow of blood. The sedimentation rate is increased by sickle cell anemia.
