Although gas exchange is a continuous process, the oxygen and carbon dioxide are transported by different mechanisms.

Specifically, males have about 5.4 million erythrocytes per microliter (µL) of blood, and females have approximately 4.8 million per µL. In fact, erythrocytes are estimated to make up about 25 percent of the total cells in the body.

It explains that sickle-cell anemia arises from inheriting the βS gene from both parents, while individuals with one βS and one βA gene have some malaria resistance.
