Question
with blood loss from chronic bleeding, the anemia has what type of rbc morphology?
Brief Explanations
Chronic blood loss leads to iron - deficiency anemia over time. In iron - deficiency anemia, the red blood cells (RBCs) are microcytic (smaller in size than normal) and hypochromic (less hemoglobin content, so paler in color). This is because iron is essential for hemoglobin synthesis and normal RBC maturation.
