Question

how can a person with sickle cell disease be benefited if they were diagnosed with malaria? someone please help ill give brainliest

Answer 1

Infected sickled red blood cells create a hostile environment for the plasmodium parasite in malaria. The sickle cells have membranes, stretched by their unusual shape, that become porous and leak nutrients that the parasites need to survive and the faulty cells eventually get eliminated quite fast by the organisms, destroying the parasite along the way.
