A 58-year-old female presents in the clinic with complaints of fatigue, weight loss, and tingling in her fingers. Laboratory findings show a low hemoglobin and hematocrit, a high mean corpuscular volume, and normal plasma iron. These findings are consistent with which type of anemia?

Pernicious anemia.

Explanation:

Pernicious anemia is usually caused due to the deficiency of Vitamin B-12 in the body or absence of Intrinsic factor in the digestive system that lowers the uptake of vitamin B-12.

Due to lack of Vitamin B-12 in the body the nucleated megaloblasts do not mature into non-nucleated RBCs and flow into the blood vessels.

This results in low hemoglobin levels , fatigue, weight loss etc as common symptoms.

who knows

explanation:

as the gila monster consumes the eggs or young of the desert cottontail and gambel's quail, thus its main food supply is only accessible for a restricted time duration every year. however, for this, the gila monsters exhibit three adaptations, which elevate their survival rate in the desert condition.  

first, is that they possess huge bodies, and can consume greater concentrations of food during a small period. secondly, they require to feed infrequently as they can accumulate fat in their tails. ultimately, their rate of metabolism is very low, so that they can burn their reservoirs of fat gradually.
