Ferromagnesian minerals are minerals that have iron or magnesium in their structure. The greater specific gravity is between 3.2 and 3.6. Some examples are pyroxene, biotite, garnet, and olvine.

Most mafic minerals are dark in color, and common rock-forming mafic minerals include olivine, pyroxene, amphibole, and biotite. Common mafic rocks include basalt, diabase and gabbro. Mafic rocks often also contain calcium-rich varieties of plagioclase feldspar.

Answer:

Iron deficiency anemia.

Explanation:

The presence of blood in her stool does not affect blood volume, but leads to iron deficiency anemia when iron stores are depleted.

Iron deficiency anemia is a common type of anemia, a condition in which the blood does not have enough healthy red blood cells.  It is due to a lack of iron, so the body cannot produce a sufficient amount of hemoglobin, a substance present in red blood cells that allows them to transport oxygen. As a consequence, iron deficiency anemia can make you feel tired and short of breath.
