Question

Diseases :)

Answer 1

Hey! This is my assignment now in my Science subject. I got the score 9/10. So I’m pretty good at this. I’m a Science major in our class. And I hope my answer will be chosen as the BEST ASNWER. I really used a lot of time taking back my memory for the answers. LOL :)

1. High blood pressure or hypertension

This is characterized by a sudden rise in blood pressure. The person usually feels a terrible headache, a pain in the neck, dizziness and at times, sweating. This condition can result to the rupture of blood vessels.

2. Anemia

This is caused by the decrease in the number of hemoglobin in the red blood cells. This condition is due to iron deficiency. When one suffers from anemia, the blood cannot produce enough HEMOGLOBIN.

Anemia may be due to several causes: loss of blood, severe deficiencies in Vitamin B12 or folic acid, or fast destruction of red blood cells due to diseases.

3. Leukemia

It occurs when white blood cells becomes abnormally great in number. A person suffering it may easily bruises, bleeds and tires. He/she develop sore throats. It sometimes require blood transfusion, same as Anemia.

4. Heart Attack

It occurs when a blood clot or fat or fat gets lodged along the bloodstream. This blocks the passage of blood to the heart, thus preventing the heart from getting enough blood. A heart attack victim may feel pain in the neck, chest and upper abdmen. The person may also experience difficulty in breathing.

There are three more, the Arteriosclerosis, Rheumatic heart fever and Pulpitation or irregular heartbeats. But we haven’t discuss those yet so I’m sorry. But I hope I still helped you out!
