Solution

The correct option is B 8 gm/dL
Leukemia is the condition of the excessive formation of the white blood cells due to the cancerous growth in a myeloid progenitor cell. The formation of the white blood cells outnumber the red blood cells due to which the hemoglobin in the body decreases. In a normal female, the Hb count varies from the 12 to 16 gm/dL. It decreases significantly to 8 gm/dL in the leukemic female.
Hence, the correct answer is 8 gm/dL.
