Sickle cell disease is present usually in those of African or Mediterranean descent (Saladin 2007). About 1.3% of African Americans have sickle cell (Saladin‚ 2007).

The sickle cell hemoglobin is not able to be digested by the parasites that cause malaria‚ making those with sickle cell resistant to malaria (Saladin‚ 2007). This paper will discuss a normal erythrocyte compared to an erythrocyte

bacteria’s contents intact. The Cell Membrane: Is a phospholipid bilayer that completely surrounds a bacterial cell. Cell membrane acts as a highly selective barrier. This barrier prevents materials from diffusing into and out of the cell. This allows the cell to take up chemicals and nutrients needed for survival while keeping the cell components separated from the environment. The fluid and all its dissolved or suspended particles that can be found within a bacterial cell are called the Cytoplasm.
