Rationale 4: Surgical anesthesia includes loss of consciousness.
Global Rationale: Surgical anesthesia occurs at Stage 3, where the patient is not conscious and is relaxed, eye movement has slowed, and vital signs have stabilized.

Rationale 1: Most iron in our bodies is stored on hemoglobin in the red blood cell.
Rationale 2: Transferrin is a protein that transports iron to places in our bodies where it is needed.
Rationale 3: After erythrocytes die, nearly all of the iron in their hemoglobin is incorporated into transferrin and recycled for later use.
Rationale 4: The most common cause of nutritional anemia is iron deficiency.
Global Rationale: After erythrocytes die, nearly all of the iron in their hemoglobin is incorporated into transferrin and recycled for later use. Most iron in our bodies is stored on hemoglobin in the red blood cell. Transferrin is a protein that transports iron to places in our bodies where it is needed.
