d. Susceptibility to contracting malaria.

Respuesta :

Answer: Option C.

Inefficient oxygen transportation .

Explanation:

Sickle cell anaemia is an inheritable condition in which the the red blood cell cannot transport oxygen effeciently in the blood to organs because of it's distorted shape which is sickle.
