Q. Which vitamin deficiency causes pernicious anaemia?

NTA AbhyasNTA Abhyas 2020Biomolecules

Solution:

Vitamin $B_{12}$ helps to produce red blood cells. Due to deficiency of vitamin $B_{12}$ the sufficient amount of red blood cells will not be produced. As a result, RBC deficiency in haemoglobin is known as pernicious anaemia.
