Anaemia is a sign which suggests that the the level of Haemoglobin in the circulating blood is low. It gives you a pale appearance, and will give rise to weakness, tiredness and dizzy spells. You will need to see your Doctor to investigate the cause of anaemia.

anemia
WHAT type of anemia is caused by failure of the bone marrow to produce erythrocytes?
Aplastic anemia
What is the a condition of decreased in erythrocytes?
If a person has a low red blood cell count, it is an indication that the person is ill. Some conditions that can cause low red blood cell count are kidney disease, cancer, bone marrow disease, and anemia.
When a patient has iron deficiency anemia how will the erythrocytes appear?
Pale. (if its bad enough).
What are types of anemia that reduce hemoglobin level?
The type of anemia that can reduce the hemaglobin level are the microcytic-hypochromic anemia and the normocytic-normochromic anemia. Microcytic-hypochromic anemia produces small, abnormally small erythrocytes and reduced hemoglobin concentrations. However, hypochromia can occur even in cells of normal size. This type of anemia results from a variety of conditions that are caused by disorders of iron metabolism, porphyrin and heme synthesis, or globin synthesis. Normocytic-normochromic anemia produces a destruction or depletion of normal or mature erythrocytes. Although the erythrocytes are relatively normal in size and in hemoglobin content, they are insufficient in number. This type does not share any common cause, pathologic mechanism, or morphologic characteristics and is less common than the others. The five distinct anemic conditions exemplify the diversity of this classification which are the aplastic anemia, posthemorrhafic anemia, haemolytic anemia, anemia of chronic disease and sickle cell anemia.

What are the mentall side effects of enimia?
The mental side effects of Anemia are confusion and memory difficulties.
Why is it in hypophosphatemia can cause anemia?
Phosphate is essential for membrane structure of all the cells including erythrocytes. Also it is a part of ATP molecule which plays an important role in membrane integrity. The deficiency of phosphate is increasing the fragility and hemolysis of red blood cells and causing hemolytic anemia.
A pollutant that can reduce the amount of oxygen carried by blood is?
Yes, anemia refers to a low number of erythrocytes in the blood, and therefore less oxygen can be transported at a given time.
Which is a condition in which the number of erythrocytes in the blood is decreased?
You would have pernicious anemia, causing joint pain, inflammation, and need medical care to build up your red blood cells again. Further degeneration of the red blood cells would be called leukemia, a cancer of the blood!
