Answer:

The correct answer would be - a decrease in the numbers of RBCs will lead to a decrease in the ability for gas exchange in a person.

Explanation:

In the case of anemia, there would be a decrease in the number of RBCs that might be due to increased destruction of these cells, or low production of RBCs, that transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide affects the ability for gas exchange in an individual.

RBCs carry and transport oxygen to various body parts and then carry back carbon dioxide from different parts of the body to the lungs for gaseous exchange but with less number of RBCs leads to impair or decreased gas exchange in the case of anemia.
