Fat is a quite simple component to measure. Increased or above normal/ average body fat has been proven to be linked with many health risks.<span> <span>Body weight is not always an accurate indication of body composition. If you were to equate an NFL running back who is 5' 10" and weighs 200 lbs, to a 5'10" 200 lbs. banker, there body composition would be VERY unalike although there weight is exactly the same. Of course the football player is healthier, because he is perhaps carrying one third of the body fat as the banker of the same weight. Maintaining that muscle mass would also infer healthy habits like nutrition and exercise.</span></span>

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Megaloblastic anemia is as a result of deficiency of mature red blood cells characterized by red blood cells that are larger than normal.

Explanation:

Megaloblastic anemia is a type of anemia (blood disorder) resulting from the number of red blood cells being lower than normal. This red blood cells aid in the transportation oxygen round the body. Megaloblastic anemia is as a result of deficiency of mature red blood cells characterized by red blood cells that are larger than normal. It is caused by deficiency in vitamin B-12 or folate which are necessary for producing healthy red blood cells. Since red blood cells are too large, they are not produced properly, as a result oxygen is not distributed properly.
