Question

Anemia is an inherited disease.
True
False

Answer 1

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement ,"anemia is an inherited disease " is definitely incorrect.

Anemia might be both acquired (developed due to some external factors) and inherited (passed onto the individual from parents).

Some information :-

Anemia is a disorder in which the RBC count or haemoglobin saturation is below the normal level.

Example of inherited anemia :- sickle cell anemia (a defect due to substitution of glutamic acid by valine causing change in RBC's shape from normal biconcave disc like to elongated sickle kind of structure).

Answer 2

Anemia can be inherited or acquired: Inherited anemia happens when parents pass the gene for the condition on to their children. Acquired anemia is not something you are born with. You develop the condition later on.

So, it can be true.

Explanation: Hope it helps you :))))
