Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C, D
Causes for iron deficiency caused by an inadequate supply of iron include prematurity, excessive milk intake, and severe iron deficiency in the mother. Rapid growth rate, not slow, and exclusive breastfeeding of infant after 6 months, not from birth to 3 months, can be causes of inadequate supply of iron.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C
The clinical features of severe congenital neutropenia include anemia and neutropenia, and the illness is severe. It has an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern, and there are increased, not decreased, eosinophils in the bone marrow
