Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Megaloblastic anemia is characterized by a low red blood cell count and larger-than-normal red blood cells. Pernicious anemia is the most common type of megaloblastic anemia. Iron deficiency is a hypochromic, microcytic anemia meaning the red blood cells are pale and small. The red blood cells in sideroblastic anemia are not abnormally large; they have an abnormal ring of iron around the nucleus of the RBC. Hemolytic anemia is normochromic, normocytic anemia caused by blood loss.
