Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Leukemia is a type of cancer that affects the white blood cells, causing them to become abnormal and multiply uncontrollably. As a result, there may be an excessive number of white blood cells but they may not function properly, leading to inadequate defense against foreign invasion. Leukemia can also result in anemia due to the suppression of normal blood cell production by leukemic cells in the bone marrow. Internal bleeding can occur due to the decreased production of platelets (thrombocytes) which are responsible for blood clotting. Therefore, all of these can occur with leukemia.
