Answer:

HbA HbA

Step-by-step explanation:

The genotype of the person with normal red blood cells in all environmental conditions is HbA HbA because if the genotype was HbS HbS, they would have the sickle-celled anemia condition with or without environmental conditions. If they had a genotype of HbA HbS, they would develop sickle-celled anemia under environmental conditions. Hence, someone with an HbA HbA genotype would not possess the sickle-celled anemia trait ever and would have normal red blood cells.
