a condition in which the number of healthy red blood cells or hemoglobin in one's body is low

What is "anemia"?

Anemia is a condition where there is a shortage of red blood cells or a decrease in the amount of hemoglobin in the blood.

When someone has anemia, they may feel tired or weak because their body is not getting enough oxygen. Other symptoms can include pale skin, shortness of breath, dizziness, and cold hands and feet. Anemia can be caused by various factors, such as blood loss, not enough production of red blood cells, or loss or damage to red blood cells. Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may involve iron supplements, changes in diet, medications, or addressing any underlying health conditions contributing to the anemia.

What is "marsupial"?

Marsupial is a type of mammal that is characterized by giving birth to relatively undeveloped young, which continue to develop outside of the womb in a pouch called a marsupium which is a defining feature of marsupials, as is their unique reproductive system.

What is "onomatopoeia"?

Onomatopoeia is a literary device where a word imitates or suggests the sound it describes. It creates a vivid auditory effect by using words that sound like the noises they represent. For example, words like "buzz," "clang," and "sizzle" mimic the sounds associated with them. Onomatopoeia adds a sensory dimension to writing, making descriptions more engaging and realistic by allowing readers to "hear" the sounds in their imagination.
