Question

multiple choice question
which type of anemia is usually caused by blood loss coupled with nutrition deficits?

aplastic anemia
iron-deficiency anemia
hypoplastic anemia
pernicious anemia
renal insufficiency anemia

Explanation:

Iron - deficiency anemia often occurs due to blood loss (which causes loss of iron - rich red blood cells) along with nutritional deficits, especially lack of iron in the diet. Aplastic anemia is due to bone marrow failure, hypoplastic anemia is related to reduced bone marrow production, pernicious anemia is due to vitamin B12 deficiency (usually from lack of intrinsic factor), and renal insufficiency anemia is due to reduced erythropoietin from kidneys.

Answer:

B. Iron - deficiency anemia
