Anemia is a condition where there is a deficiency of red blood cells or hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is responsible for carrying oxygen. So, less hemoglobin means reduced oxygen supply (as oxygen is transported by hemoglobin). Platelets are for clotting, not related to anemia. Blood composition thickness isn't a direct effect. Immunity against bacteria is related to white blood cells (not directly to anemia).
