Discussion
Read the statements I and II.
Statement I : Due to anaemia, children do not grow well, and their energy levels are low.
Statement II : Anaemia affects both, children's physical as well as mental health.
Choose the correct answer from the following :
Answer: C
The answer is Both I and II are true.
Anaemia is a shortage of haemoglobin, most often caused by a lack of iron in the diet. Haemoglobin carries oxygen in the blood, so an anaemic child's body and brain receive less oxygen. Such children tire easily, have low energy and may not grow properly, which is what statement I says.
Statement II is also true. Besides its physical effects, anaemia reduces attention, concentration, memory and learning, so it affects children's mental performance and school work as well as their physical health. Neither statement is false.
