Which problem may increase in the body due to deficiency of haemoglobin?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Less oxygen will reach cells
Haemoglobin is the oxygen-carrying pigment present in red blood cells. It binds oxygen in the lungs and transports it to body tissues. If haemoglobin is deficient, the oxygen-carrying capacity of blood decreases, so cells receive less oxygen for aerobic respiration and energy release. Therefore, option A is correct. B concerns digestion, while C and D describe unrelated plant or digestive structures.
