Question

A person's bone marrow produces red and white blood cells. Which of the following best describes how damage to a person's bone marrow would affect his blood and health? There would be fewer red and white blood cells available to flow in the person's blood, resulting in oxygen starvation and infection. There would be the same number of red blood cells and fewer white blood cells available to flow in the person's blood, causing infection. There would be the same number of white blood cells and fewer red blood cells available to flow in the person's blood, causing oxygen starvation. There would be more red and white blood cells available to flow in the person's blood, resulting in oxygen overload and stronger immunity.

Answer 1

Damage in the bone marrow, called as aplastic anemia leads to lower production of both red and white blood cells, causing oxysgen starvation and infection.
Platelets are also reduced.
