Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback
A Increased blood viscosity is usually a function of too many cells or of
dehydration, not of anemia.
B A depressed hematopoietic system or abnormal hemoglobin can contribute to
anemia, but the definition is dependent on the deceased oxygen-carrying capacity
of the blood.
C A depressed hematopoietic system or abnormal hemoglobin can contribute to
anemia, but the definition is dependent on the decreased oxygen-carrying
capacity of the blood.
D Anemia is a condition in which the number of red blood cells or hemoglobin
concentration is reduced below the normal values for age. This results in a
decreased oxygen-carrying capacity of blood.
