Using blood doping to artificially increase the number of red blood cells in an athlete might lead to a long term shortage of red blood cells because

1) red blood cells could stop being produced by meiosis

2) homeostasis could be disrupted in the athlete

3) red blood cells could attack and destroy the extra red blood cells

4) the athlete would no longer need red blood cells
