Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Untreated iron deficiency anemias progress slowly, and in severe cases the heart muscle becomes too weak to function. If this happens, heart failure follows.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Hemophilia A affects mostly males who received the sex-linked recessive trait from a symptom-free female. The defective gene is on the X chromosome.
