Answer 1

Hint: Anemia is a disease in which you lack sufficient healthy red blood cells to carry the tissues of your body with enough oxygen. There are many forms of anemia, each with its own cause. In many locations, it is the most common blood condition. Almost 6% of the population is affected by it. Anemia is more likely to occur in women, young children and people with long-term illnesses.

Complete answer:
Anemia can be long-term or temporary, and can range from mild to severe. If you believe that you have anaemia, see your doctor. This may be a warning sign of extreme illness. The signs and symptoms of anaemia differ based on the cause. If anaemia is caused by a chronic illness, it can be disguised by the illness, so that tests for other disorders can detect anaemia. If they do occur, signs and symptoms may include:
> Tiredness
> Feebleness
> Body that is pale or yellowish
> Heartbeats that are abnormal
> Shortness of Respiration
> Lightheadedness or dizziness
Three kinds of blood cells are made by your body: white blood cells to prevent infection, platelets to support your blood clot, and red blood cells to bring oxygen in your body. There is haemoglobin in red blood cells, an iron-rich protein that gives the blood its red colour. Hemoglobin helps red blood cells to bring oxygen to all areas of the body from the lungs and to bring carbon dioxide to your lungs to be exhaled from other parts of the body. It is impossible to prevent many types of anaemia. But by eating a diet that contains a number of vitamins and minerals, you can prevent iron deficiency anaemia and vitamin deficiency anaemia.

Hence, the correct answer is (D) All of the above.

Note:
Most blood cells are formed frequently in your bone marrow, including red blood cells, a spongy substance contained inside the cavities of many of your large bones. Your body requires iron, vitamin B-12, folate and other nutrients from the foods you consume to create haemoglobin and red blood cells.
