Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Anemia can be caused by a variety of factors, including bone marrow disease that affects the production of red blood cells (option I) and iron deficiency that leads to a decrease in hemoglobin synthesis and resultant red cell count (option II). Low numbers of white blood cells (option III) are not directly related to anemia, as they are involved in immune system function and fighting infections, rather than carrying oxygen to tissues. Therefore, the best choice(s) are D, I and II.
